FAQ About WSO AGM Battery Solutions
Do WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM batteries offer increased cycle life compared to standard wet acid batteries?
Yes. The enhanced durability from the WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM design provides extra protection against deep discharge and multiple cycle damage. This enables extended life even with repeated charge/discharging cycles. In fact, WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM batteries have 2x the cycle life of conventional flooded batteries and also recharge faster providing more accessory power longer.
Can WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM batteries be recycled like conventional flooded batteries?
WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM and conventional flooded lead-acid batteries are one of the most recyclable products on the planet. Lead-acid batteries have a higher recycling rate than glass, aluminum, and newspaper. In fact, virtually 100% of every battery component can be recycled to make a brand new battery.
WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM batteries are part of a program that recycles batteries at one of the most modern and environmentally-safe facilities in the world.
Make sure your customers recycle their battery with someone they can trust.
Do the best batteries always have the highest CCA ratings?
No. Optimized power is not always reflected by CCA ratings. AGM batteries deliver power quickly to start the engine. A CCA rating measures cranking over a 30 second period. Cars today start in milliseconds due to improved electrical systems.
Fuel injection, computerized starting controls, and other enhancements allow vehicles to start quickly without the need for extended cranking. Premium batteries should deliver the right balance of life, power, and durability – not just starting power.
Is the WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM battery and Optima both AGM technology?
Yes. Optima utilizes AGM technology with high capacity spiral plates allowing for power in extreme conditions. The spiral and absorbed glass mat design delivers enhanced vibration resistance of 15x more than conventional designs.
WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM batteries operate under the same principle of AGM technology and receive similar benefits on how it elevates performance. The power-optimized flat plates, tight-packed components, and durability-enhanced design of the WORLD SOURCEONE flat plate AGM battery significantly enhance cycling capabilities and offer 20x the vibration resistance of conventional designs.
What allows the WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM Battery to be vibration resistant and spillproof?
WORLD SOURCEONE® AGM batteries utilize an Electrolyte Suspension System that also protects the battery’s internal power producing components with a shock absorbent separator material to help deliver 20x the vibration resistance of a conventional flooded battery. This Electrolyte Suspension System has a superior absorption retention rate completely suspends all of the free-flowing electrolyte enabling fast-acting power and a spillproof design.
