What is an AGM battery?

"Absorbed Glass Mats" or the AGM, it is the newest type of sealed battery that use a between plates. The plate is composed of a very fine fiber made of Boron and Silicon glass. This kind of battery has the same features as gelled type, but it can take more discharged.

It does not also spill out even if it is broken. Glass mats assist in holding together the acid and electrolytes. It is also immune from spilling damage because it has no liquid on its inner layer.
