[time-nuts] New NTBW50AA

[Tom Miller]

In normal float battery service, the voltage is about 56 volts. During a 
equalize charge, it will be close to 60 volts. The unit you have most likely 
spent all its life at 56 volts. The 48 volt service comes from the nominal 
end of capacity voltage of a 48 volt (24 cells) at 2.0 volts (or less) per 
cell. Just like your car has a 12 volt battery, in normal service it runs 
about 14 volts.

Tom

Everything here runs off 24V, but don't forget the higher the voltage the 
less current you need too..
I have heard of people running as high as 55v, shocking huh?
