Ultracapacitors, Are they worth it?,...

[Duber]

I haven't been on the forum for long, but reading about the AGM battery upgrade, and Ultra capacitors make good business sense.
I started using the newer technology of AGM over 7 years ago. Communication equipment in the oilfield at the remote well locations is how I was introduced to them.
Since then I have replaced all my mobile units wet lead acid batteries with AGM. figure at the 3 year point the batteries have made me money now. Have never missed a start, even after a long night of lights on by accident. Or brutal cold of 7 or 8 days at minus 40c sitting in camp remote locations of Northern Alberta.
Capacitors are the next change, as now I am starting to see them in use for the industrial systems of (power van)potable genset units .
The use and application of newer technology needs to be discussed and shared more.

Thanks you Rawze for this forum.
