Sun Xtender PVX-2240T 6V 224Ah Solar Battery - VRLA AGM Deep-cycle

The Sun Xtender PVX-2240T is a 6-volt valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) AGM deep-cycle solar battery designed for off-grid and grid-tied solar and wind energy storage systems, RV battery banks, remote residential installations, SCADA and telemetry infrastructure, and telecommunications backup power applications.

A division of Concorde Battery Corp. — an industry pioneer in VRLA-AGM battery design since 1987 — Sun Xtender engineered the PVX-2240T on the industry-standard BCI Group GC2 golf cart platform, delivering 224Ah at the 24-hour rate — the highest capacity available in the GC2 footprint within the Sun Xtender lineup.

The familiar Group GC2 form factor provides direct drop-in compatibility with the vast installed base of existing GC2 battery enclosures, trays, and brackets across the solar, RV, and off-grid industries, making the PVX-2240T the preferred choice wherever maximum stored energy in a standard GC2 case is required.

Key Features:

• Highest-Capacity Group GC2 Model — Delivers 224Ah at the 24-hour rate and 260Ah at the 100-hour rate in the industry-standard BCI Group GC2 golf cart case; direct drop-in compatibility with existing GC2 enclosures, trays, and RV battery compartments makes it the premier capacity upgrade for GC2-based solar and off-grid battery banks
• Pure Lead Calcium Grid Construction — Plates are thicker than industry standard for longer cycle life, increased reliability, and greater power output; low impedance AGM design allows excellent charge acceptance with no current limit required when using controlled voltage charging
• PolyGuard® Microporous Polyethylene Separators — Proprietary dual-layer insulation protection shields positive plates against shorting, shock, and vibration; a Sun Xtender exclusive feature not offered by any other manufacturer in the industry
• Non-Spillable VRLA-AGM Design — Valve-regulated, maintenance-free construction eliminates the requirement to monitor and replenish water levels; non-spillable design allows installation in any orientation — upright, on its end, or on its side — without risk of electrolyte leakage
• M8 Copper Alloy Threaded Insert Terminals — Corrosion-resistant copper alloy M8 threaded insert terminals supplied complete with silicon bronze bolts, nuts, and washers required for installation; optional factory-installed SAE automotive post terminal available by adding "A" suffix to part number
• High-Impact Copolymer Polypropylene Enclosure — Battery cover and container uniquely molded with reinforced copolymer polypropylene featuring thick end walls to prevent bulging under pressure; built to withstand the demands of rugged off-grid, RV, and renewable energy environments
• Hazmat Exempt Shipping — All Sun Xtender batteries ship Hazmat Exempt, simplifying logistics for distributors, dealers, and end users across all shipping channels

The PVX-2240T delivers 224Ah of nominal capacity at the 24-hour rate and scales up to 260Ah at the 100-hour rate, making it well suited for the slow, sustained discharge cycles typical of off-grid solar storage applications and RV house battery banks. At the 1-hour rate the battery delivers 143Ah, confirming its ability to supply high current for shorter duration loads in inverter and backup power applications. The low impedance AGM construction ensures excellent charge acceptance across the full range of charge rates with no current limit required when using a properly regulated charge source — a significant advantage in solar systems where charge current varies with available irradiance throughout the day.

Sun Xtender's proprietary PolyGuard® separator system provides a level of plate protection not available from competing AGM battery manufacturers, directly contributing to the PVX-2240T's long cycle life and resistance to the vibration and shock loads common in RV, marine, and mobile off-grid installations. As the highest-capacity Group GC2 model in the Sun Xtender lineup, the PVX-2240T delivers meaningfully more stored energy than conventional GC2 batteries within the same universally compatible case dimensions — two units wired in series form a 12V bank delivering 224Ah, while four units in series produce a 24V bank at the same capacity. Two integrated rope lifting handles facilitate safe handling and positioning of the 67 lb unit during installation. All Sun Xtender batteries ship Hazmat Exempt, eliminating the regulatory complexity and additional freight costs associated with non-exempt lead-acid battery shipments.
