THE BIG ADVANTAGES OF THE 12V GEL BATTERY
Modern lead-acid batteries have improved safety in a number of ways. While it's near impossible to nix lead from everything in our lives, as we need to use it for batteries, this metal does have some significant benefits. The development of the 12V gel battery is an excellent example of this, as new technological improvements have made it possible for batteries to be more safe.
What Is A Gel Battery?
Before you can determine the pros and cons of a gel battery and how they will affect you, it’s important to understand what exactly a gel battery is. A gel battery is very similar to a traditional lead-acid battery with the addition of silica to the electrolyte to create the gel like substance.
The 12V gel battery utilizes a specialized gel as an electrolyte instead of straight liquid acid. This silica-based gel suspends the necessary lead plates while simultaneously allowing electrons to travel between them. By replacing liquid acid with this gel, owners of 12V gel batteries enjoy the following outstanding benefits:
Maintenance Free: Because the batteries are comprised of gel instead of liquid, there is little to no maintenance to keep the battery working properly.
– No Leaks: Even though wet cell batteries are sealed in a plastic encasement there is still the chance that it will leak. Gel batteries are also sealed but with a valve that removes excess pressure. This means that between the gel substance and the removal of pressure, there is nowhere for the mixture to go.
Versatile use. Because traditional liquid acid batteries have the potential to leak, it's necessary for their owners to carefully place batteries in an upright position and securely bolt them there. Gel battery can be used safely in a wider range of situations. Owners can likewise enjoy positioning and securing them in more convenient locations for the user and not just positions that are considered safe. 12V gel batteries are also lighter than traditional lead-acid batteries, making them even easier to lift, hold, and install in otherwise inconvenient locations, such as in a high RV shelf.
Better operation in extreme temperatures. Studies have also shown that 12V gel batteries are more durable than lead-acid batteries at extreme temperatures. These types of batteries can operate effectively at an incredible -25 degrees Celsius and 40 degrees Celsius. In addition, their gel structure makes them better able to withstand corrosion, shock and vibration.
Slow discharge speed, long service life. Lead-acid batteries are undoubtedly a cost-effective battery solution, and they will provide good use for a long time. However, compared to gel batteries, they simply can't compete. A high-quality 12V gel battery can be used for more than ten years by regularly maintaining a high charge and charging when it is finished. This is partly due to their slower discharge rate.
The Cons
–The Price: While the benefits of a gel battery are pretty hefty, so is the price tag. Many people looking to switch from wet cell to gel batteries see this as the biggest drawback.
Charging Challenged: When charging your gel battery, you’ll want to plan on giving it extra time. Slow charging cycles are pretty common with these batteries, but you can’t walk away and leave it. Because it’s a gel instead of a liquid you’ll need to take it off the charger as soon as it’s complete. To leave it on could cause voids with the electrolyte which is irreversible damage.
Heat Control: This is truly a drawback with most batteries and gel cell batteries are no exception. Heat is one of the fastest ways to cut the lifespan of your battery short. By controlling the batteries exposure to heat, you can lengthen the life cycle and keep your battery running like new.
