Lead Carbon Batteries for off-grid and hybrid solar installations

Coromandel Batteries are one of the largest importers of Narada batteries in NZ. Unlike others who supply “to order” with long lead times, we keep stock of the most popular sizes ready for immediate dispatch.

We supply 2 volt batteries, the REXC series, in capacities from 300 to 1200 Ah that can be linked to form 12V, 24V and 48V battery banks. We also supply 6 volt 300 Ah batteries, the 6REXC-300, for those who need less capacity.  We aim always to keep a stock of the most popular sizes – 2V in 300, 600 and 1000 Ah, and 6V in 300Ah.

Narada lead-carbon batteries have earned a great reputation in the New Zealand market over the last 8 years. The REXC technology can handle deeper discharge much better than regular lead acid batteries and also performs better in partial state of charge situations so common with solar installations, making these heavy duty batteries ideal for use in off-grid or on-grid hybrid solar PV installations. The lead carbon battery technology provides not only a higher energy density and longer cycle life than traditional lead-acid batteries, but also faster charging and and the ability to supply more current when required. Also they do not require maintenance such as topping up with water, and can be mounted in any position unlike flooded lead-acid batteries.

We have been selling Narada batteries since 2017, initially to off-grid homeowners on the Coromandel Peninsula. We chose Narada after researching the market having been faced with high prices and the poor performance of other deep cycle lead-acid batteries. Narada batteries have proved to be high quality and reliable and are backed by a 5 year factory warranty.

Coromandel Batteries now supply throughout New Zealand at prices that are hard to beat. We supply customers direct and also to a growing network of installers.

Years of experience with installations in tiny houses, off-grid homes, huts, lodges, yurts and farm sheds mean we also have valuable expertise to offer.

What some of our customers have to say

Feedback from a few of our many happy customers

“Coromandel Batteries have given us fantastic service over the last 3 years. My business benefits from having batteries available whenever my customers need them and Peter’s expertise has been useful too in achieving the best outcomes for off-grid homes.”

Tim Burge, Electric Man Ltd, Colville

“We got excellent service from Peter at Coromandel Batteries, who installed new batteries in our home just prior to lock-down. His advice on suitable appliances has also helped us avoid using a generator that we used to rely on every day.”

Brett and Corinne, Katikati

“We upgraded our whole solar system 3 years ago and installed a 48V 600Ah Narada battery bank. Peter’s expertise was invaluable in sizing the system and we have now eliminated generator use and run additional appliances.”

Barry and Cath, Coromandel

“I have purchased quite a number of  battery banks from Coromandel Batteries for off-grid houses in Great Barrier and have found them excellent to deal with, fair prices and efficient dispatch.  They generally always have stock of what we need which saves me the hassle of advance ordering and long lead times.”

Ian Gordon, Igor Electrical, Tryphena, Great Barrier Island
