What is a Discover™ EV Traction Dry Cell battery?
A Discover EV Traction Dry Cell battery is a lead-acid electric storage system that:
- Is a Discover Clean & Green Non-Hazardous Dry Cell power block.
- Is the HIGHEST QUALITY choice produced with every technological advancement for the longest life performance characteristics
- Is Classified as “NON-SPILLABLE BATTERY” Not restricted for Air (IATA/ICAO) Provision 67, Surface (DOT-CFR-HMR49) or Water (Non-hazardous per IMDG amendment 27) transportation.
- Has very thick flat or tubular advanced motive power plate designs with extremely high active material densities per amp hour of usable power for extended cycle life.
- Incorporates Computer aided grid designs to optimize high power density.
- Incorporates advanced plate pasting and curing procedures.
- Use tank formation processes.
- Has heavier duty plate straps.
- Can be discharged and charged completely many times beyond 80% DOD.
- Is extremely acid starved and uses ultra pure refined electrolyte.
- Uses a recombination reaction to prevent the escape of hydrogen and oxygen gases.
- Is non-spill able, and therefore can be operated in virtually any position.
- *** Has an extremely high active material to acid ratio and low acid specific gravities.
- Uses Micro fibrous silicate glass mat acid absorption.
- Is sealed using special pressure valves and should never is opened. (warranty void if opened)
- Typically uses Calcium/Calcium metal alloys.
- Is maintenance-free with proper change management.
- Is produced in certified ISO, QS and TUV facilities.
- Is an Underwriters Laboratories (UL) recognized component.
- Have multiple advanced terminal design options.
- Incorporates proprietary manufacturing techniques, additives and processes.
* life cycles vary by battery voltage, capacity, size and operating temperatures.
*** Available amounts of usable amp hours CAN BE ADJUSTED BY AS MUCH AS 30% by adjusting the acid and active material densities. Buyers should be aware that increasing acid specific gravities andacid to active material ratios would severely reduce the batteries life cycle expectancy as well as increase the available usable power per discharge cycle. Otherwise a 75 amp hour battery can be made to deliver 100 amp hours by increasing the acid to active material ratio and the specific gravity of the acid. Both of these adjustments will severely reduce the life of the battery. Therefore, if you are quoted an unbelievable price on a 100AH battery given the current market pricing, you may now know why! Adjusting acid specific gravities and acid to active material ratios may make sense to a particular user who wishes to increase cold weather performance, but the user should again be aware that life will be negatively affected.
