Gel comparison Sealed AGM Battery

　　AGM (absorbent glass mat) is a specially designed glass mat used to absorb battery electrolytes between battery panels. The Sealed AGM Battery only contains enough liquid to keep the pad wet with electrolyte. If the Sealed AGM Battery is damaged, there will be no free liquid leakage.

　　Gel batteries contain a type of silica gel in which the battery electrolyte is suspended. This thick paste material allows electrons to flow between the plates, but if the casing breaks, it will not leak into the gel battery.

　　Under normal circumstances, Sealed AGM Battery is incorrectly identified as a gel battery. Both batteries have similar characteristics, such as no overflow, can be installed in any location, low self-discharge rate can be used safely in limited ventilation areas, and can be safely transported by air or on the ground without special handling.

　　When a large number of amperes may be required, Sealed AGM Battery is the first choice. In most cases, you can use a good quality standard battery charger to complete the charge. If most Sealed AGM Battery discharges do not exceed 60% between two charges and/or every 3-6 months of full charge, their life expectancy (measured in cycle life or years) is still excellent.

　　The power capacity provided by the gel battery is different from the Sealed AGM Battery of the same physical size. However, gel batteries perform well in terms of slow discharge rates and slightly higher operating temperatures and have excellent deep cycle capabilities. Gel batteries are considered deep-cycle batteries because of their structure. One big problem with gel batteries that must be solved is the charging curve. Gel batteries must be charged correctly, otherwise, the batteries will fail prematurely.
