armasafe plus battery maintenance

[dmetalmiki]

I've had gel batteries for 9 years in the 5ton camper, Still going strong,
And kept in condition by two individual 12 Maypole intelligent chargers.
Most all the British military batteries are of a gel type now.
6.T.N.s are still being surplus'sed though.

It's an AGM absorbed glass mat battery. All they need is an AGM maintainer connected 24-7-365 and they will last 10+ years.

These are probably the best, most robust battery's I have ever seen or worked with. Properly take care of, they will last at least ten years.

The he amount of "liquid" in the battery, and yes, it's more a gel the liquid, is mesured in tea spoons.

So if you charge it and liquid come out of the vent valves. Is that water that was absorbed somehow?

[Guyfang]

Thats something I have never observed. I had a battery charging shop in K-Town, that handled 30-35 batteries at a time, and we ran a 24/7 operation. Never saw a Armasafe leak, that had not been cracked in an accident/wreck.

I have heard that they 'could have gotten wet overnight ' I wonder over how many decades of night, he is talking about now.

Have you called the Armasafe folks and asked them about this "water" problem? When I was contracting, I several times called to ask questions, and always got a straight answer.
