Lifeline Batteries Core Advantages Construction Processes Applied Science Complete hand assembly process from the first stages of grid casting to the final forming of the batteries the materials are handled at each phase and carefully inspected to insure flawless operation Careful selection of the highest quality metals glass matting separators epoxies and patented case construction are just a few of the fundamentals that we incorporate to build our highly effective batteries Redundancy of quality control inspections at every stage of construction Through the entire manufacturing process all quality control data is collected and stored in an extensive electronic library and available for reference if needed Our extensive history of developing a premium AGM battery and proven success rate as determined through proper testing has culminated into a product that is leading the industry in a number of areas Our batteries have an extremely low internal resistance that allows them to accept current much more efficiently than flooded lead acid gelled and other AGM batteries During normal charging conditions there is no dangerous gassing and no hands on maintenance required Our batteries are a leader in the industry and provide roughly 1000 life cycles discharged to the recommended 50 which is 2 to 3 times more than many industry averages Battery Testing Consumer Confidence

PREMIUM SEALED MARINE RV BATTERIES CONCORDE S AGM TECHNOLOGY Originally developed in 1985 for military aircraft where power weight safety and reliability were paramount considerations We ve incorporated this technology in the LIFELINE series of maintenance free deep cycle batteries for your electronics housekeeping and engine starting requirements AGM TECHNOLOGY THE DIFFERENCE Some of the main differences between the old vented lead acid batteries and the LIFELINE AGM valve regulated sealed lead acid batteries are The electrolyte is absorbed in a glass mat AGM separator in the LIFELINE and it is spillable in the flooded or vented type The cells have pressure relief valves in the LIFELINE that are designed to keep positive pressure in each cell The older vented or flooded type battery cells are open to atmosphere through the vent cap holes Should the vented battery be tilted or inverted the result can be electrolyte sulfuric acid water mixture spilled all over your equipment a highly corrosive and potentially dangerous condition The cell groups in the old vented type batteries are loosely packed and thus have high plate separation In contrast the LIFELINE AGM marine battery has every square inch of positive and negative plate material tightly packed and compressed with the AGM and supported by the walls of each cell With this type of construction LIFELINE offers much lower internal resistance greater starting power particularly in cold temperatures and a much higher degree of protection against shock and vibration than the old flooded type HOW THEY WORK For more than 30 years Concorde Battery Corporation has been a leader in the research development and production of Sealed Lead Acid Batteries The older flooded electrolyte storage batteries had numerous drawbacks some hazardous and some merely an inconvenience They leaked acid and produced abundant quantities of hydrogen and oxygen gases during charge They required frequent additions of water to replenish that list by electrolysis and by evaporation The LIFELINE Series Battery was designed to correct many of the defects of the earlier batteries The cells are sealed with pressure relief valves that confine any gases produced during cell operation These gases are then recombined back into water substantially eliminating the loss of water from the cells and need for water replenishment Early on some of these features were present in what came to AGM ABSORBED GLASS MAT TECHNOLOGY be known as a gelled electrolyte battery of a GELCELL The electrolyte in these batteries consists of a mixture of finely divided silica or sand mixed with a sulfuric acid solution The gelled electrolyte is highly viscous and during charge and discharge often develops voids or cracks which impede acid flow and result in loss of battery capacity As these voids continue to increase more and more plate area is left dry and unable to provide a path for ionic flow thus progressively reducing the capacity of the gelled electrolyte battery NOT A GELLED ELECTROLYTE In contrast the electrolyte in the LIFELINE AGM Series Battery is absorbed and held in place by means of a microfibrous silica glass mat which is sandwiched between the plates The electrolyte is still liquid and remains so for the entire battery life Since the glass mat is only about 90 saturated with acid electrolyte the oxygen produced during charge can readily migrate to the negative plate and recombine into water This recombination mechanism and along with charge voltage control substantially eliminates water loss making the LIFELINE AGM Series a truly non spillable maintenance free battery The Life Cycle Performance Chart on the specifications page shows the advantage of LIFELINE AGM over the leading gel battery Reliability aboard their ships and aircraft the U S Navy depends on maintenance free sealed lead acid MIL SPEC batteries manufactured in the United States by Concorde Battery Corporation Textron Marine LCACs are equipped with LIFELINE GPL 8D marine batteries WITH LIFELINE YOU GET Superior Construction Aircraft class cell construction lowest internal resistance that provides high repeated cranking current Unmatched Life Cycles When discharged to the BCI recommended 50 Lifeline batteries provide nearly 1000 life cycles which is significantly more than other technologies Other flooded and gelled batteries fall between 300 to 450 life cycles at 50 discharges Rapid Recharge Our batteries facilitate a significant increase in recharge rate with no current limitations when you properly regulate the charging voltage Low Self Discharge Much better charge retention rate when compared to flooded and gelled technologies around 2 per month vs 10 Maintenance Free With proper charging there is no maintenance required no adding water no cleaning corrosion Safety First During normal charging conditions there is no dangerous gassing Mil Spec Lifeline battery construction has passed extensive military shock and vibration requirements Eliminate Dangerous Gassing Lifeline provides safety even during severe overcharging as the batteries produce less than 2 hydrogen gas 4 1 is required for flammability in air Long Service Life Lifeline batteries currently installed in Marine and RV applications are providing a life span ranging from 5 to 8 years Solid Warranty We offer one of the best warranties in the industry with our 5 year pro rated and a one year free replacement Talk to the Owners We offer all customers a toll free technical support line Monday Friday 7 30AM to 4PM PST Trusted by Manufacturers We currently supply more than 150 OEM s both in the US and Internationally Easy to Locate We offer customers an extensive and growing dealer distributor network to make our batteries easily accessible Expertise We have more than 30 years of experience developing and producing AGM batteries and are regarded as true pioneers of the technology LIFELINE RECOMBINANT GAS BATTERIES The cells are sealed with pressure relief valves that provide a positive pressure within the batter The plates are sandwiched with a micro fibrous silica glass mat consisting of a blend of glass fibers of varying length and diameter that have good wicking characteristics and promote retention of the electrolyte Electrolyte is absorbed and held in place by the capillary action between the fluid and the glass mat fibers The mat is over 90 saturated with electrolyte By design it is not totally saturated with electrolyte a portion is filled with gas The void space provides the channels by which oxygen travels in its path from positive to negative plate during charging The void spaces allow the freshly generated gases which are in their atomic state and very reactive to recombine rapidly and safely The recombination passivates the negative slightly reducing electrolysis and ultimately eliminating the need to add water which makes the battery truly maintenance free Because of this type of construction the VRSLAB have much lower internal resistance and thus have greater starting power particularly at cold temperatures Additionally this glass mat provides a much higher degree of support against shock and vibration than the old flooded type
