Or Glass Mat Batterys Better

An agm absorbed glass mat battery contains a special glass mat separator that wicks the electrolyte solution between the battery plates.

Or glass mat batterys better.

First and foremost the fact that the electrolyte is absorbed into fiberglass matting hence the name absorbed glass mat makes agm batteries far more resistant to vibration than flooded batteries which simply hang lead plates in an electrolyte solution inside the battery. Agm stands for absorbed glass mat which is a unique mat designed to trap the electrolyte between the plates inside the battery agm batteries are also known as sla batteries or vrla batteries. With the agm batteries the electrolyte is completely soaked in a glass mat separator whereby the acid can not move. In the gel battery however the acid is mixed with silica.

Absorbed glass mat agm. However they re more affordable. Lead acid batteries don t hold a charge as long as an absorbed glass mat battery and are less tolerant of deep discharge. Unlike normal car batteries there is no more liquid in the battery which could leak in an accident for example.

Therefore damage or impact to the battery will not harm you. The design of agm batteries also means the chances of the acid leaving. Although the acid is still immobile here the agm battery can work better under pressure. In this case a glass fiber fleece is saturated with sulfuric acid.

This material s design enables the fiberglass to be saturated with electrolyte and to store the electrolyte in a dry or suspended state rather than in free liquid form. This design brings a lot of advantages.
