“VRLA” stands for Valve Regulated Lead Acid, “AGM” stands for Absorbed Glass Mat, “SLA” stands for Sealed Lead Acid and “MF” stands for maintenance-free (Maintenance-Free). All four of these terms basically refer to the same type of lead-acid battery. An example is the pbq General Purpose series. These batteries all have a black color and are designed for standby applications.

This month was THE boat reveal of TU Delft’s Hydro Motion Team and we are proud battery sponsors there. See below the boat the students designed themselves, which contains the battery.
