Making sure you have a high-performing marine battery is one of the most important things to consider to get the most out of your marine craft. Any old battery is not going to cut it and could result in damage to your electrical system or worse. AGM batteries offer a low-maintenance, high-performance solution to your marine battery needs and help your marine craft perform at its best.
AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) batteries are specially engineered to be long-lasting, low-maintenance, and versatile enough to perform in all conditions. All Lifeline AGM batteries feature a pressure relief valve system that prevents water loss and time-consuming maintenance. Compared to similar kinds of batteries, the sturdy design of AGM batteries allows them to be mounted in any direction, making them the best solution for all designs and needs.
It is important to remember that all batteries are not created equal, and they are not interchangeable. Each type of battery is made to different specifications and capacities. Knowing the major differences between these types will ensure that you make the right decision for your specific needs. For starters, make sure that you’re using a marine battery in your boat. Marine batteries are specially designed with thicker walls and a more durable construction to withstand intense vibration and movement in choppy water.
Taking things a step further, different batteries serve different functions on your marine craft. Starting batteries are designed to deliver a strong current over a short period of time. This is great for getting your engine started, but is only useful for quick, powerful bursts of power. Deep-cycle marine batteries, on the other hand, provide a continuous flow of electricity for powering all of the boat’s electronics over a long period of time. A deep-cycle AGM battery will deliver reliable power to your boat’s electrical system. Deep-cycle marine batteries are specifically designed to recharge 20% faster than conventional batteries.
