NEW GEL TRACTION BATTERY STRONGER 33 AH (12V)

What kind of battery is needed for an anchor winch… Another addition to our product line. Our company has signed a joint cooperation agreement with a well-known Taiwanese company that produces gel traction batteries. The company is quite well known in the world market and its products have proven themselves to be the best. Due to the fact that we purchase batteries under our own brand, their retail price is on average 25-30% lower than the cost of these batteries under the manufacturer’s brand! https://strongermarine.com/ru/products/akkumulyator-stronger/

For the first time, we have taken such an unprecedented step when we offer our customers products not produced by our company. But in this way we can significantly facilitate the selection of the necessary equipment for our client, and in the end he will be able to purchase everything without unnecessary problems from one source.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT BATTERY POWER FOR A CABLE ANCHOR WINCH

A rope anchor winch is an important piece of equipment for a boat that helps control the anchor and ensures safety when the vessel is moored. However, for the winch to operate effectively, it is necessary to select the correct battery power. In this article we will look at the key points that will help you choose the right battery for your rope anchor winch. https://strongermarine.com/elektromotor-dlya-trollynga/

1. DETERMINE POWER CONSUMPTION

First of all, you need to determine the power consumption of your rope anchor winch. This can be found out from the technical specifications of the device or by contacting the manufacturer. Please note that the power of the winch may depend on its type, size and other parameters. https://strongermarine.com/gelevaya-tyagovaya-akkumulyatornaya-batareya/

2. CALCULATE YOUR WORKING TIME

Consider how long it takes on average to raise an anchor using a winch. This will determine the total amount of energy required to operate the winch. Also consider possible loads and operating conditions that may affect energy consumption. https://strongermarine.com/yakornaya-lebedka-stronger-steel-hands-35-pro/

3. CHOOSE A BATTERY WITH A RESERVE

For reliable operation of the cable anchor winch, it is recommended to choose a battery with a power reserve. This will avoid situations where the battery cannot cope with the load or discharges faster than expected. It is recommended to choose a battery with a power reserve of at least 20-30% of the design power of the winch. https://strongermarine.com/lebedka-dlya-lodki/

4. CONTACT SPECIALISTS

If you have doubts or questions when choosing a battery for a cable anchor winch, contact a specialist. They will be able to help you choose the right battery, taking into account all the features of your vessel and winch. The choice of battery power for a rope anchor winch plays an important role in ensuring its efficient operation. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations, take into account the operating features and do not forget about the power reserve for reliable operation of your winch. https://strongermarine.com/ustanovka-yakornoj-lebedky/

BATTERY FOR ANCHOR WINCH

At the moment we would like to introduce you to a battery with a capacity of 33 Ah (12 V). This battery is suitable for all types of our anchor winches. It will easily last you for a whole day of active fishing.

Batteries of the STRONGER brand are covered by warranty service or a complete replacement of the battery or a refund within 2 years from the date of purchase of the battery, in case of proper (correct) operating conditions!

Below you can find the terms of this warranty.

What kind of battery is needed for an anchor winch… First of all, it should be a traction gel battery!

CHARGER

— To charge gel batteries, a charger specifically for gel batteries must be used, the threshold voltage of which does not exceed GEL 14.2-14.4V ,   AGM 14.4-14.8V, the current must be no more than 1/6A of the rated power of the battery, those. A 100Ah battery should be charged by charging with a maximum current of no more than 16A, but only when using programmable chargers, this means that you cannot use a constant current of 16A when charging from start to finish of charging. When these indicators are exceeded, the gel electrolyte begins to abundantly release gas, which is no longer absorbed back in such volumes).

— Mandatory recharging of the battery for six months if it is not used. It is very important not to interrupt the charging process until it is finished. If you stop charging, say, at 60%, then the next time the battery will not be able to reach its full capacity – and even cycling through charge-discharge cycles will not greatly improve the situation.

DISCHARGE

– the voltage of each battery element should not fall below  1.8 V  (i.e. the minimum voltage of a 12-volt battery should not fall below 10.5 – 10.8 V!! ); Attention, exceeding the green light threshold indication on trolling motors. This means that you have reached the maximum “deepest” discharge of the battery, i.e. less than 10V. Stop use immediately. Also, the battery should be charged immediately after discharge. This especially applies to the battery. Which was subjected to a “deep” discharge. If the battery remains discharged for a long period of time. A situation is possible in which it will be impossible to completely restore its capacity.

A 100% discharge (deep discharge) is a discharge of the battery to a voltage of  10.5 Volts , and not to zero Volts.

When the battery is discharged to a critical level. Irreversible chemical processes occur inside and the battery capacity can be significantly reduced. So, if the battery is discharged to 9V. It is safe to say that 45-50% of the capacity is lost forever. If a discharge of such depth happens again. Then the remainder of such capacity will be only 25-30% of the nominal one. Therefore, even the highest quality AGM/GEL battery can be completely destroyed by 4-5 deep discharges.

ATTENTION: THE BATTERY DISCHARGE SHOULD NOT EXCEED 1/3 OF THE NOMINAL POWER!

STORAGE

Any lead-acid battery, regardless of its type, should be stored in a fully charged state at a temperature from -20 to +50 degrees (optimally at +20). https://strongermarine.com/lebedka-yakornaya-elektricheskaya/

After several months of storage, the voltage may decrease due to self-discharge. When the voltage drops below 12.6 Volts, sulfation of the lead plates begins. This may result in reduced battery capacity. https://strongermarine.com/product_category/%d1%8f%d0%ba%d0%be%d1%80%d0%bd%d1%8b%d0%b5-%d0%bb%d0%b5%d0% b1%d0%b5%d0%b4%d0%ba%d0%b8/

During storage, it is recommended to check the battery voltage once every six months. Do not allow the voltage to drop below 12.6 Volts. And when this level is reached, recharge the battery from the charger. https://www.weekender.ua/
