| Jul 1, 2018 at 7:01 | comment | added | Misunderstood | At 166 amp discharge from a 125 Ah battery you have a 132 C discharge rate (166/125). That may work with an advance lead carbon battery, not likely with a single Kirkland AGM. If you use both batteries, you should be okay. Monitor the temperature of the batteries during discharge. Higher temperature will negatively affect performance. | |

| Jul 1, 2018 at 3:23 | comment | added | D.A.S. | 125 Ah = 1.5kWh / battery ( if new and fully charged) What is the Vmin cut-out for the inverter? Does dryer consume less than 2kW or more on startup? and will it support that ? Otherwise 20 minutes should be OK for 2 batteries . Normally Ah rating for these are 20h ratings not 1 hr or less where capacity drops ~ 50% and if aged moreso. So lets assume 2 batteries of 3kWh on 2kW load wont get you 40 minutes but 20 minutes is close. In theory with perfect batteries and no inverter loss you expect 1.5h, But your results may be less. so test them | |
