Amptek 12 Volt 1.3 Amp Rechargeable Battery

The Amptek 12 Volt 1.3Ah Rechargeable Battery is a sealed lead-acid (SLA) rechargeable battery designed to provide reliable and maintenance-free power for a wide range of electronic and electrical applications. With a nominal voltage of 12V and a capacity of 1.3Ah (1300mAh), this battery is commonly used in emergency lighting systems, alarm systems, UPS units, security devices, medical equipment, electronic toys, portable instruments, and DIY electronics projects. Its compact design and dependable performance make it an ideal backup and portable power source.

This battery uses Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) technology with an Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) separator, which securely holds the electrolyte inside the battery. The sealed construction eliminates the need for regular maintenance, prevents electrolyte leakage, and allows the battery to operate safely in various mounting positions (except inverted). The battery is rechargeable and can withstand hundreds of charge and discharge cycles when used under recommended operating conditions.

Working Principle

The battery stores electrical energy through a reversible electrochemical reaction between lead dioxide (positive plate), lead (negative plate), and sulfuric acid electrolyte absorbed in a glass mat separator. During discharge, chemical energy is converted into electrical energy to power connected devices. During charging, the process is reversed, restoring the battery's stored energy for repeated use.
