    Battery Upgrade Opinions: 31 vs 34

    Bumbo, For the Buzzer Low Voltage Alert Device: Is there a particular brand or model you would recommend? Is something like this adjustable to set the voltage alert level? If so, what voltage would you recommend it to be set at? I'll be using a single X2Power AGM 27F Battery- 92Ah Capacity...

    Battery Upgrade Opinions: 31 vs 34

    Bumbo, Thanks for all that free information. I've realized that the "50% Rule" is something good to follow from now on when powering stuff off the battery! That Blue Sea LVD sounds like something worth considering for the reasons you mentioned. I've heard others refer to it also. When you...
