The use of high purity materials and lead calcium grids ensure that for both AGM and GEL products have particularly low self-discharge so that they will not go flat during long periods without charge. Both ranges are supplied with M8 drilled, flat copper terminals ensuring best possible connection contact and eliminating the need for battery terminals. The batteries are compliant with both CE and UL specifications in ABS fireproof containers and come with Victron's 2 year world-wide warranty.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eFeatures of the 12V 130Ah Gel battery\u003cbr\u003eSealed (VRLA) Gel Batteries\u003cbr\u003eHere the electrolyte is immobilized as gel. Gel batteries in general have a longer service life and better cycle capacity than AGM batteries.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLow Self-Discharge\u003cbr\u003eBecause of the use of lead calcium grids and high purity materials, Victron VRLA batteries can be stored during long periods of time without recharge. The rate of self-discharge is less than 2% per month at 20°C. The self-discharge doubles for every increase in temperature by 10°C.\u003cbr\u003eVictron VRLA batteries can therefore be stored for up to a year without recharging, if kept under cool conditions.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eExceptional Deep Discharge Recovery\u003cbr\u003eVictron VRLA batteries have exceptional discharge recovery, even after deep or prolonged discharge.\u003cbr\u003eNevertheless repeatedly deep and prolonged discharge has a very negative effect on the service life of all lead acid batteries,\u003cbr\u003eVictron batteries are no exception.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBattery Discharging Characteristics\u003cbr\u003eThe rated capacity of Victron AGM and Gel Deep Cycle batteries refers to 20 hour discharge, in other words: a discharge current of 0,05 C.\u003cbr\u003eThe rated capacity of Victron Tubular Plate Long Life batteries refers to 10 hours discharge.\u003cbr\u003eThe effective capacity decreases with increasing discharge current. Please note that the capacity reduction will be even faster in case of a constant power load, such as an inverter.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLooking to protect the battery against excessive discharge, the BatteryProtect is just what you are after.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLearn more about batteries and battery charging\u003cbr\u003eTo learn more about batteries and charging batteries (including the pro's and cons of multi-bank charging and intelligent charging), please refer to Electricity on Board.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWant to improve battery charging? Why not take a look at the Victron Energy Battery Sense which measures voltage at the battery bank terminals, errors arising from voltage-loss due to cable resistance are avoided – guaranteeing the correct charge-voltage.","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54908301967699,"sku":"VE-BAT412121104","price":107.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1076\/9324\/4755\/files\/f2cef118-9d31-4a7f-b1d1-3dc7d3705e37.jpg?v=1789034849","url":"https:\/\/progradewarehouse.com\/products\/victron-energy-gel-deep-cycle-battery-12v-130ah-bat412121104","provider":"PRO GRADE WAREHOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
