Can i change from a lead acid battery to an agm battery for my motorcycle?
Yes you can.
How do you tell if battery is an AGM?
First of all they're very expensive and are normally about twice the price of the comparable lead acid battery. Look closely as somewhere on the battery will be written AGM.
What is an agm car battery?
AGM, (Absorbed Glass Matt). They resist vibration damage, can be turned upside down, and recharge very quickly. It takes a special charger to recharge them. An example of a AGM battery is the Optima & Exide Orbital batterys.
What type of battery is a AGM?
AGM stands for absorption glass mat, so named because these batteries are made up of mats in which thin glass fibres are woven to increase the surface area. This allows the AGM battery to work like the flooded lead acid battery with the exception that the electrolyte in the AGM battery does not freely flood the plates but rather is held in the glass mats.The thin glass fibres do not absorb the electrolyte nor are they affected by the acidic electrolyte but simply hold the electrolyte preventing it from spilling when the battery is tipped over. Although the AGM battery is built in a rectangular case that meets BCI battery codes the plates themselves can be just about any shape including flat, cupped or wound.Advantages of an AGM BatteryThere are several advantages to an AGM battery, which include: Unspillable. This means even if these batteries get tipped on the side or turned upside down the electrolyte is not going to spill out of an AGM battery. That makes this battery good for the environment and safer to handle.An AGM battery never needs watering. It is considered to be maintenance free. This makes these batteries ideal to use in situations where getting hold of water to water a battery may be an issue.AGM batteries don't give off any gas when being charged so there is less worry about having the right ventilation when charging an AGM battery.AGM batteries can withstand very low temperatures without freezing or cracking.AGM Batteries are highly vibration resistant due to their sandwich construction, making them the ideal battery to use in circumstances where vibration could otherwise be an issue.Disadvantages of AGM BatteriesWhile AGM batteries have a lot of advantages that make them the ideal batteries to use in many circumstances, they do have a few disadvantages that should be noted: The cost of the AGM battery makes it a less attractive choice than the flooded lead acid battery for most every day uses.The deep cell AGM battery can only be discharged to 50% whereas the flooded lead acid deep cell battery can be discharged to 80%, which means that the flooded lead acid battery will run longer on a single charge.If an AGM battery is overcharged it will definitely shorten its life and could immediately kill the battery. So extra care must be taken when charging these batteries to ensure they are not overcharged.Although an AGM battery does have some disadvantages, it is still a great alternative to flooded lead acid batteries in many situations.
Will the AGM battery be expensive?
AGM batteries are more expensive. AGM batteries can be purchased by batteries plus or even eBay. You should consult with your car dealership as well, to insure you are purchasing the correct one.
Can a conventional battery charger correctly charge an AGM battery?
Yes, a normal charger will work just fine.
What will happen if a solar panel battery breaks?
Solar Batteries come in 3 distinctive types.Flooded lead acid,Gelled lead acid (aka gel batteries),and AGM lead acid (aka AGM batteries).Neither gelled or AGM batteries are designed to leak. However, if a gelled battery is charged in an inverted state, it can leak the electrolyte. An AGM battery never leaks.Flooded batteries however, can pose a problem. When a flooded battery is discharged and frozen, it can burst the container, allowing the acid to spill out as it thaws. This can cause both a environmental spill, and cause corrosion to the electrical equipment surrounding the battery installation.For this and many other reasons, many choose the more efficient, safer, and maintenance free AGM battery design indoors. Even when the inspector doesn't demand it.
Top of the line car battery?
an optima agm battery or any good make of agm battery they are the latest development in service free battery's and provide more power for their size than standard battery's they are also very reliable and take mistreatment well like being left flat for a long time or being run down fast
What is an AGM Battery?
The newer type of sealed nonspillable maintenance free valve regulated battery uses "Absorbed Glass Mats", or AGM separators between the plates. This is a very fine fiber Boron-Silicate glass mat. These type of batteries have all the advantages of gelled, but can take much more abuse. These are also called "starved electrolyte." Just like the Gel batteries, the AGM Battery will not leak acid if broken. By www.batteryplex.com.
What is an AGM battery and what does it look like?
AGM stands for Absorption Glass Mat, the technology is improved over other sealed batteries. Applications include Marine, RV and Aviation. AGM batteries absorb and deliver higher rates of amperage and can be charged at normal lead-acid regulated charging voltages.
