VIPOW 12V 12Ah Gel Battery

Vipow 12V/12Ah Gel Battery Gel batteries are 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 improved shock resistance. Gel Battery Durability One of the biggest advantages of gel batteries is their lifespan. Properly used, they can last for up to several dozen years, exhibiting greater resistance to variable and extreme weather conditions. Automatic Discharge (25°C) Gel batteries can be stored for months without charging. Their capacity drops to: * 91% after 3 months * 82% after 6 months * 64% after 9 months Gel Battery Selection Proper 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 your device. The output voltage should also be very close to the recommended value (+/- 0.2V). 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. They can also be found in vehicles with many electrical devices, such as campers, powering electronics rather than the engine. Gel Battery Charger For optimal performance and to prevent damage, a charger must have appropriately selected current and voltage. These values vary during different charging stages, making an automatic charger ideal. It adjusts current and voltage and switches off once the battery is fully charged.
