Lead acid batteries

Rob Eagle

Is there any limit to how long a lead acid battery can continuously supply a load, this is assuming that the capacity of the battery is capable of supplying the load for the period of whatever it may be.

    I use a solar trickle charge on a deep cycle 60Ah battery, for remote telemetry systems, these draw 600mA every 5 minutes and 60mA continuous, the solar is 24W (when it's very sunny). Battery volts remains in the range 12V to 12.8V except in the winter when it drops down to 11.5 occasionally.
