VIPOW 12V 120Ah Gel Battery

Vipow 12V/120Ah 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 storage in any position and increased shock resistance. Gel Battery Durability One of the biggest advantages of gel batteries is their lifespan. Properly used, they can last up to several years. They also exhibit greater resistance to fluctuating and extreme weather conditions. Automatic Discharge (25°C) Gel batteries can be stored for months without charging. Capacity decreases to: • 91% after 3 months • 82% after 6 months • 64% after 9 months Choosing a Gel Battery Proper dimensions are not everything. When choosing a battery, consider its capacity – it should not exceed 110% or be less than 90% of the recommended capacity for the device you plan to power. The output voltage must also be very close to the recommended value (+/-0.2 V). Gel Battery Applications 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, they can be found in vehicles with a large amount of electrical equipment, such as campers, where they power electronic equipment, not the engine. 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 different charging stages, so it's worth choosing an automatic charger that adjusts the current and voltage and switches off when the battery is fully charged.
