Welcome to Optima Batteries
OPTIMA BATTERIES, THE MOST ADVANCED AGM BATTERY ON THE MARKET TODAY.
Optima Batteries are the most advanced AGM battery in
today's market. The Optima is constructed by using spirally wound cells. This
gives an Optima AGM battery many advantages over conventional flat plate
batteries and other flat plate AGM batteries
This construction of Spirally wound cells has vital
advantages for Deep Cycle batteries. As an Optima AGM battery has these spiral
cells it allows the use of lead in its purest form. This contributes to a lower
resistance allowing Optima Deep cycle batteries to handle high discharge and
recharge rates.
Charging an Optima AGM battery via a 100 amp alternator from
100% flat (10.5 volts) will only take around 35 minutes. This example is for
Optima D27F Deep cycle batteries
.
Optima Deep cycle batteries also rated very accurately in
amp hours (C20 rate). Most deep cycle batteries maybe rated at 100 amp hours,
but you can only discharge 70% of this, where as with Optima Deep cycle
batteries you can discharge 100%.
An Optima AGM battery has a shelf life of 12 - 18 months, as
opposed to a flat plate battery that may sulphate in 3 -6 months. Optima AGM
batteries is 15 times more resilient to vibration than conventional batteries.
An exciting advantage of Optima deep cycle batteries is that
it doubles as an excellent start battery. Quite often they have more start
power than the average Start battery. An Optima AGM battery is also a non
hazardous product, as it has no leakage or terminal corrosion it can be mounted
on its side. It can even be shipped by air.
Optima Deep cycle batteries does not gas under normal
charging conditions, which makes them perfect for Caravans and RV's.
