Technology inside the Deka 8GU1

The 8GU1 is one of the Deka references for this type of use; it shares the same manufacturing and quality-control criteria as the rest of the brand's catalogue.

In a GEL battery the electrolyte is gelled with silica: it is fully sealed, cannot spill and tolerates deep discharge very well. It is the preferred technology in electric mobility, marine service and heavy-cycling applications.

Usage and maintenance tips

GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte. Recharge the wheelchair or scooter after each use and do not leave it discharged for days: lead sulphates and loses capacity.
