Dive into expert battery knowledge from Sunvolt, Zambia’s first battery factory. Learn about lead-acid and lithium batteries for automotive, energy storage, and sustainable solutions across Africa
Battery acid is the electrolyte solution inside certain types of batteries, most commonly lead-acid batteries. It’s primarily diluted sulfuric acid, typically at a concentration of 30-50% in fully charged batteries, with the rest being water.

Most people notice battery life dropping faster in certain conditions, and temperature is usually the main reason. Batteries rely on chemical reactions to store and release energy. Those reactions speed up or slow down depending on how hot or cold...

Most car batteries last between three and five years, though it really depends on where you drive and how you use the vehicle. In hot climates, heat speeds up chemical reactions inside the battery and shortens its life, so you might get closer t...

Cold temperatures directly affect how a battery works inside. Batteries rely on chemical reactions to produce electricity. When it gets cold, those reactions slow down considerably. The electrolyte fluid moves more sluggishly, and the flow of io...

Every lead acid battery slowly loses charge even when nothing is connected to it. This natural process is called self-discharge. In a typical flooded or AGM lead acid battery, you can expect to lose about 3–5% of capacity per month at room tempe...

When people talk about EV battery size, they’re referring to capacity, measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). A higher number means the battery can store more energy, which generally translates to driving farther on a single charge.

No, you should not charge a lithium battery with a lead-acid charger. It’s not safe and can damage the battery or create serious hazards. Lithium batteries need a specific charging process that most lead-acid chargers simply can’t provide.

AGM batteries, or Absorbed Glass Mat batteries, are a type of sealed lead-acid battery that has become popular for many reliable power needs. Unlike older flooded batteries that use liquid electrolyte sloshing around inside, AGM batteries hold the...
