Leoch LRC2-400 Lead Carbon Battery, 2V Cell, 400Ah

ADVANCED LEAD CARBON TECHNOLOGY

Lead Carbon batteries offer all of the benefits of a sealed AGM battery, and more. The addition of carbon to the negative plate brings dramatic performance improvements, and results in a far longer overall life.

Notably, Lead Carbon technology offers excellent 'partial state of charge' (PSoC) performance, with almost no sulphation between 30% and 70% SoC (State of Charge). Sulphation is the enemy of a traditional lead acid battery and is the primary cause of ageing & failure.

Another benefit of the carbon additive is that it improves charge acceptance, meaning that they can be charged more quickly than standard AGM batteries. Lead Carbon technology also offers the convenience of sealed (VRLA) construction, low maintenance and a wide temperature tolerance.

Lead Carbon batteries are ideal for use on off-grid power systems, especially those that cycle the batteries heavily. They are a direct replacement for standard AGM batteries, with very similar dimensions and charging setpoints. Therefore they are an ideal upgrade on boats and in motorhomes.

Leoch's LRC2Lead Carbon batteries offer '4000 cycles to 60% depth of discharge' (DoD).


Lead Carbon Benefits in Summary :

• High charging efficiency (95%) - less wasted energy.
