OPTIMA batteries, The Ultimate Power Source for military vehicles & equipment |
 |
Unlike traditional lead acid batteries that use stacks of thick lead plates suspended in a reservoir of
acid, OPTIMA® batteries feature two long pure lead-tin plates wound into a tight spiral, separated by an
absorbent glass-mat (AGM). The sponge-like AGM holds the electrolyte in place between the plates.
The SPIRALCELL® design eliminates plate-to-plate movement and shedding of the active lead past material, a
common cause of battery failure.

Optima SPIRALCELL® TECHNOLOGY benefits:
- 2 to 4 times longer life.
- 3 to 4 times longer storage time (shelf life).
- No corrosion to terminals, cables, & battery trays.
- Zero maintenance, sealed design eliminates water loss.
- Fifteen times more vibration resistant.
- Highest power density (more power per pound).
- Greatly reduces risk of a battery explosion.
- Can be recharged rapidly.
- Nonspillable; can be mounted in any orientation.
- Air shippable
- Flat discharge profile. (Higher average voltage during
discharge provides longer run time over a larger
portion of battery capacity.)
