the best solar battery price 12v
What is the cost of small solar battery price?
Experience shows that 90% of batteries last only 4 to5 years.
Don’t let that happen! Choose long-lasting deep-cycle Solartech batteries from Microtex. Dependable lead acid battery capacity so you can get the complete performance of over 7 years. Your return on investment in Microtex batteries ensures the long term cost is way lower.
What is flooded battery life? How Microtex flooded battery performs?
Special designer lead alloys, with super additives, tin, low-antimony, arsenic, ensuring a really long life for your Microtex 12V flooded battery. In addition, we add nucleating agents like selenium, sulfur & copper to ensure the lead electrodes do not corrode for a long time, ensuring a very long life. The addition of nucleating agents gives the grids a fine-grained structure with good corrosion resistance as otherwise, the coarse dendritic structure will be prone to hot cracking and porosity.
