Gel and AGM Batteries

Victron Energy offers a range of VRLA AGM and VRLA Gel batteries designed for high performance, deep cycling, and long service life. These maintenance-free batteries provide excellent efficiency, low self-discharge, and exceptional deep discharge recovery, making them ideal for renewable energy, marine, and off-grid applications.

Key Features:

  • VRLA AGM Batteries: Designed for high current discharge applications such as inverters, thrusters, and winches. Design life: 7-10 years.
  • VRLA Gel Batteries: Offers superior deep-cycle durability and longer service life. Design life: 12 years.
  • Low Self-Discharge: Can be stored for long periods without recharging (<2% per month at 20°C).
  • Sealed and Maintenance-Free: VRLA technology prevents gas escape except in cases of overcharging or cell failure.
  • Exceptional Deep Discharge Recovery: Recovers well even after deep or prolonged discharge.
  • Optimised for Cycling Use: Designed for deep discharge applications with excellent cycle life.

Comparison: AGM vs Gel Batteries

Feature AGM Deep Cycle Gel Deep Cycle
Internal Resistance Very low – suitable for high current applications Higher – best for deep cycling applications
Service Life 7-10 years 12 years
Best Use Case Engine starting, high current loads (inverters, thrusters, winches) Long life, deep cycling applications

Performance Factors

1. Effect of Temperature on Service Life

Temperature AGM Deep Cycle (Years) Gel Deep Cycle (Years)
20°C 7-10 12
30°C 4 6
40°C 2 3

2. Cycle Life Based on Depth of Discharge

Battery lifespan is significantly affected by the depth of discharge (DoD). Gel batteries generally last longer in deep cycle applications.

3. Three-Step Charging Curve

Victron AGM and Gel batteries follow a three-step charging process:

  • Bulk Phase: Constant current charging.
  • Absorption Phase: Constant voltage charging.
  • Float Phase: Standby voltage to compensate for self-discharge.

For optimal battery life, always use a charger with the correct charge curve.
