What is the Discover™ 700 Series Gel battery?

The Discover™ 700 Series Gel battery is a lead-acid electric storage battery that:

    * Is sealed using special pressure valves and should never be opened.
    * With proper maintenance, is completely maintenance-free.
    * Uses ultra pure refined and gelled electrolyte
    * Uses a recombination reaction to prevent the escape of hydrogen and oxygen gases normally lost in a flooded lead-acid battery (particularly in deep cycle applications).
    * Is non-spill able, and therefore can be operated in virtually any position. However, upside-down installation is not recommended.
    * Extra thick advanced motive power plate designs for extended cycle life
    * Computer-generated grid designs to optimize high power density
    * Advanced plate pasting and curing procedures
    * Tank formed plates
    * Heavier duty plate straps
    * Advanced terminal designs and options
    * Incorporates proprietary manufacturing techniques
    * Vision Guard© separators
    * Vision Max© paste formulas and processes
    * Can achieve a minimum 700 cycles at >80% DOD using proper charging methods
    * Can achieve in excess of 3000 cycle at a 30% average DOD using proper charging methods.

(life cycles vary by battery voltage, capacity and size. 700 series Gel types are typically used in mobility applications. 700 series products are not available in larger footprints)
