What is a gel starter battery?
A gel starter battery is a type of gel battery that is only suitable for generating a high current for a few seconds. For example, in a car, they produce the spark that starts the combustion engine.
Unlike a traction gel battery, a gel starter battery is not suitable for continuous discharging and charging. Starter batteries are only discharged for a short time. They recharge while driving, usually via a built-in alternator.
Which gel starter battery do you need?
Does your gel starter battery need replacing? Then first take a look at the specifications of your current gel battery. The dimensions, connections and technical requirements such as voltage (in volts), current (in amperes) and capacity (in amperes per hour) are important.

How do you maintain a gel starter battery?
A well-maintained battery has a longer lifespan. So, keep the following in mind:
- Check the water level regularly.
- Only top it up with demineralised water after charging.
- Keep the gel starter battery clean with a dry cloth.

How long will a gel starter battery last?
A gel starter battery for an average car will last about 5 years. The lifetime of a gel starter battery is mainly determined by its use. It therefore makes sense that the more often it has to start up and charge, the shorter its life will be. There are other factors that have an influence, such as the ambient temperature. Batteries don't like to be too cold or too hot.
