FAQs

The capacity of a battery to store charge is often expressed in Ampere hour (1 Ah = 3600 coulombs). If a battery can provide one ampere (1 A) of current (flow) for one hour it has a real world capacity of 1 Ah. If it can provide 1 A for 100 hours, its capacity is 100 Ah. Battery manufacturers use a standard method to determine how to rate their batteries.

There are several variations of lead acid batteries that differ from one another in methods of construction and type of lead besides several other factors. Different plate material & solution provide different characteristics to each battery, so it is important to buy according to your need. Consult your nearest TuffBull Dealer to find out more.

All DILInverter batteries come with a water level indicator. When the indicator moves down towards the red marking you have to add DM water (Demineralized water) until the indicator moves up to the green marking on the indicator. Be careful not to add any other electrolyte.

Yes, Lead acid battery is a hazardous product. It contains acid and requires extremely cautious handling. Acid is very corrosive and if your skin gets in touch with the acid, you are required to flush the contact area with water and seek medical help immediately if required.

Warranty duration varies with brand and type of battery. You can find the complete detail on the Product List within this website.

Old batteries may be returned to the battery retailer,battery manufacturer or other authorized collection centres for recycling only.

In a Dry-Charge battery, the plates are fully charged and dried before the battery assembly. It can deteriorate easily if exposed to air so each cell must have air tight seals to store as dry charged. A dry battery is typically filled with acid and given a short boost charge before it is ready for service

Extreme cold dramatically reduces the speed at which chemical reaction can occur, while increasing electrolyte resistance. It is important to keep batteries at a full charge during periods of extreme cold. Automobiles demand more energy from a battery in cold temperatures as it makes the engine harder to crank.

Your solar battery will store electricity generated through the Solar Panels, allowing you to use it at night-time when your solar PV system is not generating any energy. By using your own stored solar generation rather than buying electricity from the grid for full price, you can save a substantial amount on electricity bills.

VRLA stands for Valve Regulated Lead Acid. This type of technology covers both Gel batteries and AGM batteries. A VRLA battery does not vent gases under normal operating conditions and never needs water and hence should never be opened.The pressure relief valve could also be damaged and result in future malfunctions (opening a VRLA battery will void the warranty).
