Its gel electrolyte construction suits installations where orientation or ventilation is limited. Capacity is rated at C20.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity\u003c\/strong\u003e, 60Ah rated at the C20 discharge rate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGel electrolyte\u003c\/strong\u003e, no free liquid acid, reducing spillage and corrosion risk in confined or tilted installs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSealed VRLA design\u003c\/strong\u003e, valve-regulated, no water topping required, minimal gas under normal operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeep cycle rated\u003c\/strong\u003e, built to withstand repeated discharge to low state-of-charge without early capacity loss.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal voltage\u003c\/strong\u003e, 12V, works with standard 12V charge controllers, inverters and monitors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 18kg.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe gel electrolyte is immobilised rather than liquid, so the battery can be mounted in most orientations (except inverted) and copes better with vibration than flooded lead-acid types. That's useful where batteries sit in unventilated enclosures or vehicle-mounted boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe C20 figure measures the 60Ah capacity over a 20-hour discharge. Higher currents over shorter periods reduce the usable capacity, which is normal for lead-acid chemistry, so size a system around C20 and derate for high-current loads.

Set the charge source to the correct gel profile: an AGM or flooded profile risks overcharging and can permanently damage gel cells. Install in a ventilated location away from heat sources and open flame, with terminals torqued correctly and protected against short circuit. Use an MCS-accredited installer for solar PV work where required by your DNO or insurer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52061013082400,"sku":"BAT412550104","price":149.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-bat412550104-1.webp?v=1785508976","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/victron-gel-deep-cycle-battery-60ah","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
