Advantages of Gel batteries

Gel Batteries are becoming increasingly popular for solar systems due to the following reasons:

*Best suited for Deep cycle applications and their life is generally in the 500 to 5000 cycles range

*Maintenance free

*Spill proof

*Minimal corrosion therefore compatible with sensitive electronic equipment

*Rugged and vibration-resistant

*Very safe as less risk of sulphuric acid burns

*Lowest cost-per-month (cost / months of life)

*Lowest cost-per-cycle (cost / life cycles)

Don't confuse AGM batteries with GEL batteries

AGM batteries are often mistaken as Gel batteries due to their numerous similarities

Both are recombinant - meaning that the oxygen produced on positive plate is absorbed by the negative plate.

Now instead of producing hydrogen, the negative plate produces water, thus maintaining the water content in the battery.

This is the reason why AGM and Gel batteries are valve regulated, sealed, spill proof, maintenance free,

resistant to vibration and can be installed in any position.

The striking difference between the two is that of the electrolyte. Electrolyte being used in Gel batteries has a look of jelly

whereas the AGM batteries have electrolyte absorbed in glass mat like separators. Due to the properties of electrolyte

used in gel batteries the battery loses power fast at temperatures below 32 degree F whereas AGM batteries work efficiently

in cold temperatures.

Finally, gel batteries are best suited for deep discharge as they are more acid starved, protecting plates better compared to AGM batteries.

The AGMs are more compatible where high current is required.
