AGM Deep Cycle Battery

The ODYSSEY® battery from EnerSys is one of the AGM deep cycle battery options available on the market today. Whether you’re taking your boat out on your favorite body of water or taking your recreational vehicle (RV) off the grid for a once-in-a-lifetime camping experience, an ODYSSEY® battery will be able to get you out there and keep you out there with confidence. Many of your onboard electronics and appliances will have the power they need for the duration of your adventure when you choose an ODYSSEY battery.

Many people looking for a marine battery don’t want to sacrifice either deep cycle power or starting power. The ODYSSEY® battery eliminates that worry by delivering both features. It will provide strong, consistent power when starting and handle regular depth of discharge (DoD) without missing a beat.

It’s All About TPPL

If you’ve never heard of Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) technology, it’s an essential component of the ODYSSEY® battery. TPPL has been around for awhile, but EnerSys has worked to make the ODYSSEY® battery a strong and reliable Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) battery with TPPL technology.

All batteries use lead plates to produce power. But in an ODYSSEY® battery, the plates are made thinner, allowing more of them to be engineered inside the battery. The more lead plates a battery has, the more power it can produce.

AGM is Vitally Important as Well

The ODYSSEY® battery also features a high-quality AGM design, which helps make it a durable battery solution on the market. Just like batteries need lead to produce power, they also need a liquid known as electrolyte. However, conventional flooded lead acid batteries are made in a way that allows that electrolyte to flow freely inside the battery casing.

On the other hand, AGM batteries consist of glass mats that absorb the electrolyte. These glass mats are compressed between the thin lead plates. This design helps minimize the need to add any additional water to the battery during its service life.

Other Reasons to Choose the ODYSSEY® Battery

As if those benefits weren’t enough, there are several other advantages to purchasing an ODYSSEY® battery. These are just a few.

  • ODYSSEY® batteries, thanks to the combination of AGM and TPPL technology, last three times longer and deliver twice the power compared to conventional flooded batteries.
  • The ODYSSEY® battery is based on a military-inspired design, meaning it is built to withstand extreme temperatures as well as shock and vibration. It can handle temperatures that plunge all the way down to -40°F (-40°C) and soar all the way up to 176°F (80°C).
  • ODYSSEY® batteries are also resilient. They can dip down to a State of Charge (SOC) of 20 percent and be restored to an SOC of 90 percent in only one hour.
