In our store we offer two types of batteries. Gel batteries dedicated to photovoltaic charging systems and for cyclic operation and deep discharges and batteries of AGM design. This type of batteries is characterized by high resistance to rapid discharge and charging and can be used in photovoltaic systems with high-power inverter where there is a rapid process of battery discharge, i.e. less than 3 hours.
Many people colloquially refer to batteries as hermetically sealed, which do not have inspection plugs and are simply maintenance-free designs. Few people know that this term can cover an ordinary battery with liquid electrolyte, as well as a real gel or AGM battery.
Before buying, make sure that the battery itself says what the seller offers. It’s also worth checking whether such a battery is designed for (Stand by use), i.e. for buffer operation, such as in UPS or monitoring power
supplies, or “Cycle Use”, i.e. for cyclic operation, such as in photovoltaic systems or electric carts and machines. It is also worth mentioning that a typical gel or AGM battery should have information on how many full cycles it can perform, or possibly 80% or 50%. This allows us to assess the durability of the battery and choose the type for our system accordingly.
GEL Battery
Victron Energy gel batteries are ideal for photovoltaic power systems. They are used in tourism, e.g. campers or caravans, or for powering installations in single-family houses. They can also be used in industrial installations. They are dedicated wherever high charging or discharging current is not required. Gel batteries are characterized by a high durability of up to 12 years with buffer operation.
AGM Battery
Victron Energy gel batteries are ideal for photovoltaic power systems. They are used in tourism, e.g. campers or caravans, or for powering installations in single-family houses. They can also be used in industrial installations. They are dedicated wherever high charging or discharging current is not required. Gel batteries are characterized by a high durability of up to 12 years with buffer operation.
Lithium Battery 12,8V & 25,6V Smart
Battery with integrated cell balancing that can be parallel and series connected. Bluetooth app available to monitor cell voltage and temperature
Lithium SuperPack 12,8V & 25,6V
The SuperPack batteries are extremely easy to install, not needing any additional components. The internal switch will disconnect the battery in case of over discharge, over charge or high temperature.
Lead Carbon
Battery
Better partial state-of-charge performance, more cycles, and higher efficiency. Replacing the active material of the negative plate by a lead carbon composite potentially reduces sulfation and improves charge acceptance of the negative plate.
