I'm currently designing a mobile 24VDC power source for low power applications and I'm interested in decent battery protection to get the most cycles out of the batteries. I like the look of the BP65, but I'm not sure what the settings would be ideal for the batteries.
I'll be running 2x 12V, 120AH VRLA batteries in series (ARMASAFE Plus, 12FV120). But looking at the programming for the BP65, it seems to me like the shut down and restart voltages are a little bit too spread out to effectively save the battery.
Any suggestions on which setting would be ideal for the VRLAs? And will any of the settings operate properly allowing just a 20% discharge before cutoff?
Thanks for the help.
