Long renowned for producing some of the best deep cycle batteries in the world, Fullriver have expanded their range of Sealed Lead Acid batteries to now include a full gel range. As the Australasian/Oceania distributor, R&J Batteries are pleased to be now able to offer this new product throughout Australia.


A gel battery is similar in construction to a traditional AGM battery, but instead of the electrolyte being suspending in a glass mat, silica is added to make it a firmer gel type substance.


Whilst the amp hour rating between like for like sized AMG and gel varies in rating, the advantage of a gel battery over an AGM battery are several including…
Excellent slow discharge rates
Greater efficiency in a very wide temperature ranges, particularly higher ambient temperatures
Longer life span, particularly in harsher cycling applications like mobility
Better recovery, particularly from lower depth of discharge

Fully sealed, non-spillable case
Does not give off gas
Calcium lead plates
Designed in accordance with IEC 60254-1
Maintenance free
