VIPOW 12V 12Ah Gel Battery

Vipow 12V/12Ah Gel Battery Gel batteries have become an alternative to classic lead-acid batteries. Unlike the latter, gel models are maintenance-free, requiring no electrolyte replenishment. Their sealed casing and gel electrolyte prevent leakage, allowing for any-position storage and increased shock resistance. Gel Battery Durability One of the biggest advantages of gel batteries is their lifespan. Properly used, they can last for over a decade, offering superior resistance to varying and extreme weather conditions. Automatic Discharge (25°C) Gel batteries can be stored for months without charging. Their capacity decreases to: * 91% after 3 months * 82% after 6 months * 64% after 9 months Choosing a Gel Battery Proper dimensions are not everything. Consider the battery's capacity – it shouldn't exceed 110% or fall below 90% of the recommended capacity for your device. The output voltage should also be very close to the recommended value (+/-0.2V). Applications of Gel Batteries Gel batteries are used in motorcycles, golf carts, and lawnmowers. They are also used in emergency power supplies, photovoltaic installations, alarm systems, and electric toys. They can be found in vehicles with numerous electrical devices, such as campers, powering electronics rather than starting the engine. Gel Battery Charger For optimal performance and to prevent damage, the charger must have appropriately selected current and voltage. These values vary during charging stages, making an automatic charger ideal. It adjusts the current and voltage and shuts off when the battery is fully charged.
