Key Specifications:

Capacity: 100Ah (Amp-hours) at 12V, delivering 1200 watt-hours (Wh) of energy (12V × 100Ah).

Chemistry: Gel electrolyte (silica-based), making it spill-proof, maintenance-free, and resistant to vibration.

Cycle Life: ~500–1000 cycles at 50–60% depth of discharge (DoD). Deeper discharges reduce lifespan.

Advantages:

1. Deep-Cycle Performance: Handles repeated discharges better than standard lead-acid batteries.
2. Maintenance-Free: No need to refill water; sealed design prevents leaks.
3. Safety: Non-spillable and safer for indoor/ventilated spaces.
4. Slow Self-Discharge: Loses charge more slowly than flooded batteries when idle.

Typical Applications:

• Solar power systems (off-grid or hybrid setups).
• RV, marine, and caravan power.
• Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and backup systems.
• Telecommunications or remote equipment.

Charging Requirements:

• Charge Voltage: ~14.1–14.4V (absorption), 13.8V (float) – use a gel-compatible solar charge controller.
• Controller Type: MPPT (preferred for efficiency) or PWM with gel settings. Avoid overcharging, which can damage the gel.
