Are you using a Battery Tender http://batterytender.com/chargers/power-tender-plus-24v-at-2-5a.html or other trickle charger? I have one connected to each bus and so far seems OK.

Just had two of my four Odyssey PC680 batteries crap out after 2 years of service although an identical set on the other buss are fine

 

Robert,
I have a similar setup in my IV-P and had planned to replace two of the four batteries every two years, expecting them to last for four years…but I never looked at the expected/advertised life; I was just following a practice used for lead/acid batteries. Two of my batteries are coming up on two years old; the other pair are coming up on four years, and I’d planned to replace them during the condition inspection next month. I’d  appreciate your thoughts/experience on this.

Thanks,

Bob
