At Electroquest we can offer a very wide range of leisure batteries to cater for all leisure applications.

To decide which type is best for you depends on a number of factors. The standard wet lead acid leisure battery is generally the cheapest on the market. They are cost effective but need maintaining and are more prone to damage caused by discharging and generally have a shorter service life than other leisure batteries. The sealed wet leisure batteries need no maintenance, will hold its charge for longer and are safer as they cannot leak electrolyte like a standard leisure battery. AGM and Gel leisure batteries are able to cope with more charge - discharge cycles during their service life and will hold their charge for longer having low self drain properties. They are also used for more specialist applications as they do not gas like other battery types and are completely leak proof. The AGM batteries also have the advantage of being extremely resistant to vibration.
