The Problem
The existing lead-acid battery bank was aging, reducing reliability and making charging behavior less predictable for harbor use.
The owner needed a proper replacement path — with battery cables, terminals, and charger compatibility reviewed before installation.
EBR planned battery replacement and upgrade options across lead-acid, AGM where appropriate, and lithium when the system was a good fit.
