Tolerates extreme temperatures well, with low self-discharge during winter shutdowns or between stays at vacation homes. ## Why this solar battery? - **Designed for solar systems** optimised for daily charge/discharge cycles - **Handles extreme temperatures** in technical rooms or outdoor installs - **Minimal self-discharge** when left idle over winter or holidays 🔌 Voltage 12 V ⚡ Capacity 125 Ah C20 📏 Dimensions 345×171×283 mm ⚙️ Technology GEL ⚖️ Weight 39 kg 🏷️ Model TROJAN GEL ## Description ## Solar battery Trojan 5SHP-GEL 125Ah 12V 12*V* Voltage 125*Ah* Capacity 39*kg* Weight 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. ### When you get it and how to return it Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before 6:00 pm**: 24-48 working hours in mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 to 5 days in the islands and the rest of Europe. Returns are accepted for **14 days** if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is the Trojan 5SHP-GEL a GEL battery? What is GEL used for? Yes, this model is a GEL battery: sealed lead-acid where the electrolyte is in gel form. It tolerates deep discharges very well and is ideal for cyclic use (solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs, motorcycles). Requires a GEL-specific smart charger — max charge voltage ~14.1 V (vs 14.4-14.7 V for AGM). Lifespan 6-10 years. ### What are the dimensions of the Trojan 5SHP-GEL battery? Dimensions (length × width × height) are 345×171×283 mm — also written as 345x171x283 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your device before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals. ## Compatible vehicles This battery fits 38 vehicles.
