Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) Lead-Acid Advanced Technology

Why do I need a special battery for the automatic start-stop system?

Evertime when we start the engine, it need a large amount of energy from a car battery. The battery must supply a high starting current. Especially with modern vehicles with automatic start-stop systems, the engine is switched off several times during the journey. The battery continues to supply all of the electrical consumers with energy. A conventional starter battery (SLI) is not designed for this charge output (i.e. continuous discharging and charging).

Only a battery with start-stop technology can deal with these demands and withstand the strain.

Upgrade to AGM to get the best of the best. By choosing an AGM battery with the most advanced technology, you will get an outstanding battery that is capable of powering the most demanding vehicles and accessories. AGM technology offers three times the endurance of conventional batteries, perfect for advanced start-stop systems in which the battery needs to be quickly recharged through the energy provided by the regenerative braking system.
