This Infographic will explain what AGM battery is and how it differs from a wet lead acid battery. This information may be helpful to individuals who have never heard of this type of battery before, or are interested in learning more about the differences between the two.
AGM batteries are made up of glass matting, which serves as a separator between the anode and cathode. The electrolyte is also absorbed into these mats instead of being mixed together with them like in a wet lead acid battery.
AGMs can withstand higher levels of discharge than traditional batteries because they do not produce hydrogen gas while discharging, meaning that there are no potential explosions when one is used (which could be dangerous).
