Choosing the Right Battery for Your Truck
April 28 2023

Before you can choose the right battery for your truck, you need to know which batteries are suitable for your truck. This article highlights the following two types of batteries that we hope will help you.


FLOODED TRUCK BATTERY


Battery Types

Flooded Truck Battery

These batteries are of traditional design, and most modern versions are maintenance-free, meaning they do not require the addition of water after use. Flooded truck batteries have lead plates surrounded by electrolyte and distilled water.


Features

Super power:continuous power for 4 to 6 hours for air conditioning or other appliances during parking.

Innovative technology: Special design based on working conditions, 10 times deep discharge cycle.

Fast charging: unique paste formula, 2 times charging efficiency for fast charging.

Maintenance-free: extremely low water consumption, no need to add electrolyte.

Enhanced vibration resistance: more durable and reliable for harsh environments.


HEAVY TRUCK AGM DUAL PURPOSE BATTERY


AGM Dual Purpose Batteries

AGM dual purpose batteries tend to contain more lead and have lower resistance, which can significantly alter their performance.They can handle higher amperage without building up excess heat and can provide a healthy balance of cold start amperage and reserve capacity. While they are more expensive, they have more internal material and a more robust housing, and can withstand more depth of discharge (DOD) cycles.


Features

Compression assembly: helps prevent active material shedding for longer life.

Unique hybrid slurry formulation: enhanced cycle life and lower internal resistance.

AGM spacer: electrolyte is adsorbed inside the spacer, helping to improve electrolyte delamination and reduce plate grid corrosion.

Oxygen compound during battery charging: effectively prevents gas precipitation and reduces battery water loss.

No flow electrolyte: safe and green, maintenance-free.


Choosing the right battery for your truck

If your vehicle is frequently driven in harsh weather such as severe cold, you may choose a liquid-rich TV. If you have a sleeper and multiple electrical devices that run when the engine is off, you will need an AGM battery with higher reserve capacity.

When choosing the right battery for your truck, other factors should be considered, such as lift gates, cold weather only operation and vehicle applications.
