In any RV, it's imperative that you use deep cycle batteries. There are a number of different types of deep-cycle batteries, such as gel batteries, Lithium-ion batteries, flooded lead-acid batteries, and absorbed glass mat batteries. But what are AGM batteries, and are they good for RVs? In this article, we discuss what AGM batteries are [...]
Even though some systems in your RV may rely more on gas power, you will still be using the 12 Volt deep cycle battery in your RV fairly consistently. This can become a problem if you use your RV pretty regularly because you don't want to drain your battery too low. Depending on the size [...]
Absorbed Glass Mat batteries, or AGMs, were invented in the 1970s and are considered a superior alternative to typical flooded cell batteries. While more expensive than conventional options, AGM batteries outperform conventional batteries by any measure. While typical lead-acid batteries remain popular today, AGM batteries are beginning to gain attention in the market. Take a [...]
Demand for low maintenance goods and services is being driven through the roof by our busy lives, and batteries are no exception. Since we prefer replacing batteries as infrequently as possible, AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) batteries are a perfect fit for this category. Unlike regular flooded batteries, the positive and negative plates in AGM batteries [...]
AGM batteries are some of the most sought after batteries today thanks to their low resistance, good electrical reliability, longevity, versatility, and low maintenance cost. But despite these enormous benefits, many users don’t give AGM batteries the attention they deserve when charging. Charging an AGM battery properly is one of the surest ways to ensure [...]
AGM batteries are the ideal choice for boats, race cars, and RVs due to their durable construction, faster recharging, and increased starts per charge.
