What is an AGM battery?
An AGM battery is a lead-acid electric storage battery that:
■ is sealed using special pressure valves and should never be opened.
■ is completely maintenance-free.*
■ has all of its electrolyte absorbed in separators consisting of a sponge-like mass of matted glass fibres.
■ uses a recombination reaction to prevent the escape of hydrogen and oxygen gases normally lost in a flooded lead-acid battery
(particularly in deep cycle applications).
■ is non-spillable, and therefore can be operated in virtually any position. However, upside-down installation is not recommended.
■ Connections must be retorqued and the batteries should be cleaned periodically.
What is a VRLA battery?
Valve Regulated Lead Acid Battery – This type of battery is sealed Maintenance Free with a "Bunce" Valve or Valves in the top of them
that opens when a preset pressure is realized inside the battery and let's the excess gas pressure out. Then the valve resets itself.
What is a SLI battery?
These initials stand for Starting, Lighting and Ignition, which are the three basic functions which a battery has to perform on all
normal vehicles. Batteries given this description will have been specifically designed for service on cars and trucks within a
voltage controlled electrical system. Those SLI batteries which are intended for heavy haulage vehicles fitted with large diesel motors may
often be called COMMERCIAL batteries. They have to be much more powerful and more robust than batteries intended for cars.
What is STATE OF HEALTH?
It means how much battery capacity is left (%) comparing with the marked original battery capacity.
What is STATE OF CHARGE?
It means how many percent of the battery is actually charged.
What is CCA (COLD CRANKING AMPS)?
The current in amperes which a new fully charged battery can deliver for 30 seconds continuously without the terminal voltage falling
below 1.2volts per cell, after it has been cooled to 0OF and held at that temperature. This rating reflects the ability of the battery to deliver
engine starting currents under winter conditions.
What is AMPERE-HOUR?
The unit of measurement of electrical capacity. A current of one ampere for one hour implies the delivery or receipt of one ampere-hour.
