Frequently Asked Questions
What is a flooded deep-cycle battery best used for?
Flooded deep-cycle batteries are designed for applications requiring repeated discharge and recharge cycles, including marine, golf cart, RV, industrial and utility applications.
Do flooded batteries require maintenance?
Yes. Electrolyte levels should be periodically inspected and the battery should be kept properly charged. Follow the maintenance instructions for the specific battery.
How can I check the battery's state of charge?
State of charge can be checked using resting voltage. On serviceable flooded batteries, specific gravity can also be measured with a hydrometer for a more detailed indication of charge.
How should a flooded battery be stored?
Fully charge the battery before storage and periodically check its charge level. Flooded batteries naturally self-discharge over time and should not be allowed to remain discharged for extended periods.
Can flooded batteries be mounted on their side?
No. Flooded lead-acid batteries contain liquid electrolyte and should remain in their specified upright operating position.
