Sealed Lead-Acid batteries are a staple of our modern world, powering everything from emergency backup systems to electric vehicles. But have you ever wondered how they actually work? In this article, we will delve into the inner workings of these powerful energy storage devices, uncovering the secrets behind their reliable performance. Unlike their non-sealed counterparts, Sealed Lead-Acid (SLA) batteries are designed to be maintenance-free and operate in any position. The key to their functionality lies in their construction. Inside the battery, lead plates are immersed in an electrolyte solution made of sulfuric acid and water. When a load is connected to the battery, a chemical reaction occurs between the lead plates and the electrolyte, generating electrical energy. What makes SLA batteries unique is their ability to be recharged, thanks to a process called the lead-acid cell reaction. As the battery
