Maintenance-free gel battery Vipow 12V 20Ah dimensions 181 x 77 x 167 mm

Maintenance-free gel battery of high quality. Safe to operate, requires no maintenance and is sealed (can operate in any position). Very slow self-discharge process.
Gel batteries have become an alternative to classic lead-acid batteries. Unlike the latter, gel models are maintenance-free batteries. This means that they do not require topping up the electrolyte. What speaks in their favor is a sealed housing and electrolyte in the form of gel. This guarantees that it will not leak, so the battery can be held in any position and is more resistant to shocks.

DURABILITY OF GEL BATTERY
One of the biggest advantages of gel batteries is their longevity. Of those available on the market, this type is characterized by the longest, as properly used they can work for up to a dozen years. Importantly, gel batteries are also characterized by greater resistance to variable and extreme weather conditions.
AUTOMATIC DISCHARGING (25°C)
Gel batteries can be stored even for many months without recharging. Their capacity drops to: 91% after 3 months, 82% after 6 months, 64% after 9 months.
COMBINATION OF GEL BATTERY
Responsible dimensions are not everything. When choosing a battery, you need to 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. Also important is the output voltage, the value of which must also be very close to that recommended (+/-0.2 V).

APPLICATION OF GEL BATTERIES
Gel batteries are used in motorcycles, golf carts or lawnmowers, among others. They are also used in emergency power supplies, photovoltaic installations, alarm systems or electric toys. They can be found in vehicles that have a large number of electrical devices, such as campers. They are then used not to start the car, but to power electronic equipment.
Charger for gel battery
In order for a charger to perform its function well and not damage the battery, it must have a properly selected current and voltage. At different stages of charging, these values will vary, so it is worth choosing an automatic charger that will not only adjust the appropriate charging current and voltage, but also turn off when the battery is fully charged.
