FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a gel battery and how does it work?
A gel battery is a type of sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is suspended in a gel-like substance, which makes it maintenance-free and leak-proof. It works by converting chemical energy into electrical energy through a gelled electrolyte that allows for efficient power storage and discharge.
What are the advantages of using gel batteries?
Gel batteries offer several advantages including a longer lifespan, maintenance-free operation, enhanced safety due to their leak-proof design, and better performance in deep discharge applications compared to traditional flooded batteries.
How long do gel batteries typically last?
Gel batteries generally last between 10 to 12 years, depending on usage, maintenance, and operating conditions. They are designed to have a longer cycle life than conventional lead-acid batteries.
What are the common uses of gel batteries?
Gel batteries are commonly used in applications requiring reliable and maintenance-free power, such as in solar energy systems, electric wheelchairs, medical equipment, UPS systems, and various recreational vehicles like golf carts and boats.
How should gel batteries be maintained?
Gel batteries are low maintenance, but it’s important to keep them clean, ensure proper charging with a compatible charger, and avoid over-discharging. Regularly checking connections and keeping the battery in a well-ventilated area can also help extend its lifespan.
