An Adventure Kings agm deep cycle battery is so much more than just a black box
in this video i'm going to explain exactly what goes into these that makes them so good plus i'll
explain to you what to look out for when you're shopping around to ensure you get a higher quality
battery firstly not all batteries are created equal and lately there's been a flood of cheap
batteries that have hit the market that makes it difficult to know exactly what you're getting
particularly when all you can see is the case so the first thing to look for are the dimensions
and the weight batteries are grouped by size which makes it easy to compare them
like for like the adventure king's 115 amp hour battery is a group 31 group 31 batteries generally
offer between 75 and 125 amp hour capacity so the adventure kings is at the upper end of the scale
the adventure king's 115 amp hour battery measures 329 millimetres long 173 millimetres wide and 209
millimetres high and weighs a hefty 30 kilos due to the large amount of active material inside
as an exercise if you're comparing it to a similar battery with similar dimensions and weight with a
much higher capacity you'd have to be skeptical in reality compared to the adventure king's 138
amp hour battery which is much larger in order to fit more active material and weighs substantially
more now let's get into what makes the Adventure Kings agm deep cycle battery high quality first
they're built with a tough abs polymer case abs is renowned for its impact resistance and toughness
as well as resistance to concentrated acids alcohols alkalis and oils going even deeper into
the heart of an adventure king's battery we've used the best materials for better durability and
increased deep cycling ability for heavy demand applications and that's how we've designed them
for a 12 year service life the foundations of a high quality battery are the positive and
negative grids Adventure King's battery grids are heavy duty and cast with a special calcium
tin lead alloy that equals improved durability and vibration resistance improved performance and life
lower resistance and better energy transmission reduced grid growth and corrosion and finally
better bonding between the grid and the active material the active material in adventure king's
batteries is manufactured from very high purity lead in fact Adventure King's batteries use
99.9999 pure lead on all active material which minimises the negative effects of impurities
being agm Adventure King's batteries use plate separators engineered with a special
mat of woven acid resistant glass fibres plus we utilise s-wrapping s-wrapping ensures plates are
positioned a constant distance apart to eliminate the risk of short circuits caused by mossing
or debris at the bottom of the cell whilst at the same time holding the electrolyte
in place and allowing it to fully react with the active material to prevent
uneven saturation which ensures the battery has a long life without losing capacity the
battery separators hold the plates tied in place and reduce damage from vibrations and shock too
with all those plates compressed into each cell it ensures they're up to the task when fall driving
or being used as a portable power hub not only that we utilise special production and quality
control systems to ensure that the electrolyte saturation is optimised for each individual
battery and the electrolyte is special too Adventure King's batteries only use analytical
grade electrolyte that means less impurities and less chance of any power losses to make things
even better the battery design and construction negates the need to top up electrolytes making
this a truly maintenance-free battery for its entire life due to their sealed non-gassing
design Adventure King's batteries are safe to use inside your vehicle with more than 99 of
the gases created during normal battery operation being recombined inside the battery and of course
they're spill proof and leak proof all six battery cells are joined with high quality and epoxy
sealed terminals this is vitally important for high power usage and ensures no seal degradation
or electrolyte leaks with adventure kings you'll have trouble free operation for the design life of
the battery Adventure King's batteries by design are low self-discharge plus we sell enough volume
that you're always going to get fresh stock not a battery that's been sitting on a shelf for months
in the unlikely event that something does go wrong we offer Australian warranty returns and we're
easy to contact so now when you're looking for any battery for your full driving or camping setup you
know you can trust adventure kings we've developed a feature-packed range of batteries that offer
great value to smart shoppers do your own research compare what you've learned and don't get stung
buying a cheap battery with exaggerated marketing that's going to let you down when you need it most
