WHAT IS A GEL BATTERY?
WHAT IS AN AGM BATTERY?
A gel battery is a lead-acid electric storage battery that:
●
is sealed using special pressure valves and should never be opened.
●
is completely maintenance-free.*
●
has all of its electrolyte absorbed in separators consisting of a sponge-like mass of
matted glass bres.
●
uses a recombination reaction to prevent the escape of hydrogen and oxygen gases
normally lost in a ooded lead-acid battery (particularly in deep cycle applications).
●
is non-spillable, and therefore can be operated in virtually any position. However,
upside-down installation is not recommended.
●
Connections must be retorqued and the batteries should be cleaned periodically.
