EXPEDITION Plus Ultra Deep Cycle GEL 12 V 160 Ah Battery (EXP12‑160C)
The 160 Ah Expedition Plus battery uses the same lead‑carbon GEL technology as the 110 Ah model but offers higher capacity for applications requiring longer autonomy. It has a nominal capacity of 160 Ah and a 5‑year warranty. The battery is fully sealed and maintenance‑free, designed for leisure and renewable energy systems.
Lead‑carbon GEL batteries combine the benefits of lead‑acid and super‑capacitors. Activated carbon and graphene are added to the negative plate to improve the rapid charge and discharge characteristics and extend the cycle life to more than 1 500 cycles at 50 % depth of discharge. This design also reduces crystallisation within the cells.
Features
- High‑purity lead‑carbon GEL construction.
- Sealed, spill‑proof and maintenance‑free operation.
- Resistant to sulphation under partial state‑of‑charge use.
- Fast charging and high energy density.
- Up to 1 500 cycles at 50 % depth of discharge.
- Positive terminal on the left; bolt‑through terminals (Type 2).
- Made in Vietnam by Ritar International.
