This solution will also neutralize battery acid that has soaked into the hold down straps and extend their life.
Yeah, I recall reading that. I wasnt so concerned about the straps. My questions was more about the 4 battery set up that was done. I know when running the inverter only, the batteries do not hold voltage very well.

Just curious, but does anyone know of a different type of battery that could be used instead of the acid batteries? Pros/Cons
