From our long experience of providing battery solutions to our customers and partners, we have seen that there are some basic questions that are always asked. Here we are sharing some of the common questions and their answers regarding the batteries for your convenience.

What not to do with Gel, AGM and Lithium Ion batteries

• Incorrect charge voltage. Too low a voltage means that the battery cannot charge to 100 % - the sulphate then  hardens on the plates and the battery loses its capacity. Excessive voltage causes the batteries to generate gas, leading to water loss and drying out.
• Excessive discharging. Discharging a battery further than its capacity shortens its lifespan.
• Too large ripple on the charge voltage. Cheap and old-fashioned chargers often have a significant voltage ripple (voltage variation) in the output voltage.
• The use of an alternator without 3-step regulator, a high ambient temperature or charging without temperature compensation.
• The LI battery should not be charged without measures such as a safety relay.

Can I keep my batteries connected during winter?

This is no problem for any battery, and can even be a benefit as the lower temperature extends battery life considerably. The batteries should be fully charged, however, and disconnected from any consumers. Make sure to consider hidden consumers such as voltmeters, clocks and the car radio memory. If the battery is connected to a professional battery charger with 3-stage+ charge characteristic, the battery is recharged every 12 days to ensure it stays in optimal condition. If you disconnect the battery we recommend disconnecting all consumers and connecting the power once every two to three weeks to ensure the batteries are recharged. If you don’t have access to power in winter, we recommend fully charging the batteries and disconnecting the battery terminals to ensure they are not discharged by small devices. We also recommend fully charging your batteries every two months and before they are reused. Wet batteries should be recharged regularly to prevent them from freezing.

How should I maintain gel, AGM and Lithium Ion batteries?

Gel, AGM and Lithium Ion batteries as opposed to traditional open batteries do not need maintenance, which means they can be installed anywhere. However, we recommend checking all the connections once a year to make sure that they are properly attached, and to clean the top surfaces with a slightly moist cloth. The batteries also need to be completely charged every time for a maximum lifespan.
