VIPOW 12V 7.5Ah Gel Battery

Rebel Power 12V/7.5Ah Gel Battery Gel batteries have become an alternative to classic lead-acid batteries. Unlike the latter, gel models are maintenance-free, meaning they do not require electrolyte replenishment. Their advantages include a sealed case and gel-form electrolyte, preventing leaks and making them resistant to shocks and suitable for any position. 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 years with proper use. Importantly, gel batteries are also more resistant to changing 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 are not everything. When choosing a battery, pay attention to its capacity – it should not be more than 110%, nor less than 90% of the capacity recommended for the device you plan to power. The output voltage is also important 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 rather than starting the car. Gel Battery Charger For a charger to function properly 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 charging current and voltage and switches off when the battery is fully charged.
