Vipow gel battery 12 V / 9 Ah
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 electrolyte replenishment. What speaks in their favor is the tight housing and the electrolyte in the form of a gel. This ensures that it will not leak, so the battery can be held in any position and is more resistant to shocks.

Gel battery life
Gel battery durability
One of the biggest advantages of gel batteries is their durability. Among those available on the market, this type is the longest - if properly used, it can work for up to several years. Importantly, gel batteries are also more resistant to changing and extreme weather conditions.

Automatic discharge of the gel battery
Automatic discharge (25°C)
Gel batteries can be stored for many months without the need to charge. Their capacity drops to:
• 91% after 3 months
• 82% after 6 months
• 64% after 9 months

How to choose a gel battery
Selection of a gel battery
Appropriate dimensions are not everything. When choosing a battery, pay attention to its capacity - it should not be greater than 110% or less than 90% of the capacity recommended for the device you plan to power. The output voltage is also important and its value must also be very close to the recommended one (+/-0.2 V).

The use of gel batteries
The use of gel batteries
Gel batteries are used, among others, in motorcycles, golf carts and lawn mowers. They are also used in uninterruptible power supplies, photovoltaic installations, alarm systems and electric toys. Moreover, these batteries can be found in cars with a large number of electrical devices, e.g. campers. They are then used not to start the car, but to power electronic equipment.

Which gel battery charger to choose
Gel battery charger
For the charger to perform its function properly and not damage the battery, it must have appropriately selected current and voltage. These values ​​will differ at different stages of charging, so it is worth choosing an automatic charger that will not only adjust the appropriate charging current and voltage, but will also turn off when the battery is fully charged.
