Abstract :
In this paper, the authors report the results of tests on small stand-alone solar photovoltaic (SPV) power systems. The systems were monitored regularly to determine the application specific effect on the systems with an emphasis on battery behavior. The performance of a life enhancer is extremely satisfactory.
