Victron AGM Deep Cycle 8 - 220Ah battery
The AGM battery from the Victron brand is extremely suitable for high-current applications, such as inverters, bow thrusters, and winches, due to its very low internal resistance. The AGM battery has an expected lifespan of 7–10 years.
Please note: for batteries over 38 Ah, an additional €35 shipping charge applies!
Sealed (VRLA) AGM batteries
AGM stands for Absorbent Glass Mat. In these Victron AGM batteries, the electrolyte is absorbed by capillary action into a fiberglass mat sandwiched between the plates. Compared to gel batteries, Victron AGM batteries are better suited to delivering very high currents for short
periods (such as starting an engine). A VRLA AGM battery has a lifespan of 7–10 years.
Battery discharge characteristics
The nominal capacity of Victron "Deep Cycle" batteries refers to a 20-hour discharge (a
discharge current of 0.05C). The nominal capacity of Victron Tubular Plate Long Life batteries refers
to a 10-hour discharge.
The effective capacity decreases as the discharge current increases (see Table 1).
