HI All, first time post here. I have followed this page for a while, and have really learned a lot, thank you for sharing your passion.
I recently salvaged a storage shed that had some batteries in it. They look like they have never been used, are in the original packaging, and were properly stored. They are Saft X 180 Ni-Cd batteries. I took them to a local Tescco to be looked at, they said they, if they were stored properly they are good as new.
Two questions,
1. Are these batteries good for solar storage?
2. Is there a bulletin board somewhere that I can post them on for sale?
More info on the batteries:
Saft TLK-180
Mfg date 7-2014
Ni-Cd wet alkaline cells
there are 3 strings, each is 24V or 48V, 38 cell, 8.2Kw per string.
each sting has 8, 172Ah 4 cell and 2, 172Ah 3 cell batteries.
Maybe a third question.
How much would one 8.2 Kw string run?
I have plans to build a cabin on some land I have in AZ. I want to run a well pump to a storage tank, and a recirculating pump for a floor heat system as well as the basic appliances and lighting.
Thanks again.
