Solar battery Trojan 5SHP-GEL 125Ah 12V

The 12 V, 125 Ah Trojan 5SHP-GEL solar battery with GEL technology is designed for off-grid photovoltaic installations and storage systems. Measuring 345 × 171 × 283 mm, it is the direct replacement for off-grid PV systems fitted from the factory with a 125 Ah battery of this format.

• Maintenance-free in off-grid installations.
• Compatible with common MPPT and PWM controllers.
• GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.
• Low self-discharge during the darker months.

Will it fit your current battery tray?

It has external dimensions of 345 × 171 × 283 mm and weighs 39 kg. It uses 8 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.

What the Trojan 5SHP-GEL is for

Designed for off-grid photovoltaic installations and storage systems, the Trojan 5SHP-GEL tolerates extreme temperatures and long periods of low activity. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 39 kg and 8 terminals.

Technology inside the Trojan 5SHP-GEL

The 5SHP-GEL is one of the Trojan 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.

Why choose Trojan batteries

Trojan Battery is the world reference in deep-cycle batteries: golf carts, cleaning machines, aerial platforms and solar systems rely on its T2 technology and longevity. All the Trojan batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

Official warranty

The Trojan 5SHP-GEL comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. If it fails through a defect within the warranty period, we replace it at no cost to you.

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. In the darker months, check the voltage periodically and avoid full discharges.
