What are the differences between gel
batteries and absorbed glass mat
(AGM) batteries?
Both are recombinant batteries. Both are sealed valve-regulated
(SVR) – also called valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA). AGM batteries
and gel batteries are both considered “acid-starved”. In a gel
battery, the electrolyte does not flow like a normal liquid.
The electrolyte has the consistency and appearance of petroleum
jelly. Like gelled electrolyte batteries, absorbed electrolyte batteries
are also considered non-spillable – all of the liquid electrolyte is
trapped in the sponge-like matted glass fiber separator material.
The “acid-starved” condition of gel and AGM batteries protects
the plates during heavy deep-discharges. The gel battery is more
starved, giving more protection to the plate; therefore, it is better
suited for super-deep discharge applications.
Due to the physical properties of the gelled electrolyte, gel battery
power declines faster than an AGM battery’s as the temperature
drops below 32ºF. AGM batteries excel for high current, high power
applications and in extremely cold environments.

You'll Cover More Ground with an MK Battery
An MK sealed Gel battery features an inherently safer, truly maintenance-free design.
MK Gel batteries have provided years of proven performance and significantly longer life
averaging 1 to 2 years or longer when properly maintained.

Important Charging Instructions.
The warranty is void if improperly charged. Use a good constant
potential, temperature-compensated, voltage-regulated charger.
Constant current chargers should never be used on VRLA batteries.
