3 TYPES OF MOTIVE BATTERIES
Equipment that moves people, machines, or materials are powered by motive batteries. There are three main categories of motive batteries:
- Flooded lead acid batteries
- VRLA batteries like Trojan AES AGM and standard AGM batteries
- Lithium batteries
Flooded batteries are tried-and-true, affordable, and recyclable. VRLA batteries are an upgrade, especially when it comes to maintenance and cold weather performance. Lithium is an investment in speed, power, and convenience.
Some batteries handle extreme temperatures better. Others might charge faster. There are good reasons to choose one battery over another. It’s up to you and the equipment performance you need.
