Recommended Battery For For Enclosed Trailer Security/Alarm System
Question:
What is the best battery for my enclosed trailer alarm/security system? AGM... deep cycle... etc.
asked by: R M
Expert Reply:
A lithium battery like the Power Sonic RV Lithium Battery # PS34FR is going to be the best battery type for your alarm system. Lithium batteries handle the cold weather better than AGM or Deep cycle batteries that can freeze.
Traditional lead acid batteries can freeze at temperatures below freezing since they use water inside the cells, this will actually lead to the battery becoming damaged internally and no longer working properly.
I recommend using a OptiMate Solar Duo Portable Solar Panel with Controller # MA89JR to keep the battery charged while it is stored for any long periods of time.
