12V 100Ah VRLA AGM Gel Battery Rebel

12V 100Ah VRLA AGM Gel Battery Rebel

Rebel Power 12V/100Ah Gel Battery Gel batteries have become an alternative to classic lead-acid batteries. Unlike the latter, gel models are maintenance-free, requiring no electrolyte top-up. Their advantages include a sealed casing and gel electrolyte, preventing leaks, allowing for any-position storage, and offering improved shock resistance. The Rebel battery's internal construction and its weight of almost 30 kg result in higher capacity than lighter competitor products. Gel Battery Durability One of the biggest advantages of gel batteries is their lifespan. Among those available on the market, this type boasts the longest, lasting up to several dozen years with proper use. Importantly, gel batteries also exhibit greater resistance to fluctuating and extreme weather conditions. Automatic Discharge (25°C) Gel batteries can be stored for many months without charging. Their capacity drops to: • 91% after 3 months • 82% after 6 months • 64% after 9 months Choosing a Gel Battery Appropriate dimensions aren't everything. When choosing a battery, consider its capacity – it shouldn't exceed 110% or be less than 90% of the recommended capacity for the device you plan to power. The output voltage is also crucial and must be very close to the recommended value (+/-0.2 V). 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. Furthermore, these batteries can be found in cars with a large number of electrical devices, such as campers, where they power electronic equipment, not the engine starter. Gel Battery Charger For a charger to function correctly and not damage the battery, it must have appropriately selected current and voltage. These values will differ during various charging stages; therefore, it's worth choosing an automatic charger that not only adjusts the appropriate charging current and voltage but also switches off when the battery is fully charged.
