When it comes to energy storage solutions, choosing the right battery can significantly impact performance, cost-efficiency, and longevity. In this comparison, we highlight the key differences between the Ordinary GEL 12100 battery and the ASTERION CGD 12100 with Carbon Additions to help you make an informed decision.
1. Superior Cycle Life and Depth of Discharge (DOD)
ASTERION CGD 12100 outperforms the ordinary GEL 12100 in terms of cycle life. With 3,800 cycles at 30% DOD, it nearly doubles the GEL 12100's 2,200 cycles, ensuring a much longer operational life. At a 100% DOD, the Asterion CGD boasts 1,000 cycles, more than doubling the ordinary GEL's 400 cycles. This enhanced cycle life results in a more durable and reliable power source for a variety of applications.
2. Fastest Charge with High Current Handling
The ASTERION CGD 12100 supports an impressive max charge current of 50-100A, far surpassing the 20A limit of the ordinary GEL 12100. This capability leads to significantly reduced charge times of just 1-2 hours, making it the fastest-charging option available. In contrast, the GEL 12100 requires up to 7 hours for a full charge, limiting its usability in time-sensitive applications.
3. High Discharge Capacity for Better Performance
With a max discharge current of 1,000A, the ASTERION CGD 12100 offers powerful performance, compared to the GEL 12100's 800A. This means it can supply more energy in high-demand situations, making it ideal for off-grid and industrial uses.
4. Enhanced Discharge Capacity
For a 1-hour discharge, the ASTERION CGD 12100 provides 68Ah, a notable improvement over the ordinary GEL 12100's 58Ah. Over a 5-hour discharge period, it delivers 91.5Ah, outperforming the GEL 12100’s 78Ah. This higher capacity ensures a more consistent power supply for longer periods.
5. Lowest Cost of Usage
When it comes to cost-effectiveness, the ASTERION CGD 12100 has a clear advantage. The cost per cycle at 100% DOD is $0.33, whereas the ordinary GEL 12100 stands at $0.46. This means that, over time, the ASTERION CGD offers a lower total cost of ownership, making it a more economical choice.
6. Extended Warranty and Service Life
The ASTERION CGD 12100 comes with a warranty of 2-3 years, providing peace of mind for users. It also offers an estimated off-grid service life of 7 years, which is more than double the GEL 12100's 3 years. This extended lifespan ensures reliability and reduces the frequency of battery replacements, further adding to its cost efficiency.
Why Choose ASTERION CGD 12100 with Carbon Additions?
Faster Charging: With the capability to fully charge in just 1-2 hours, it’s perfect for applications requiring quick turnaround.
Highest Performance: High discharge capacities and maximum current handling make it suitable for demanding energy needs.
Cost-Efficient: Lower cost per cycle and extended service life contribute to overall savings in the long run.
Environmentally Friendly: Designed for off-grid use, it minimizes the environmental impact by lasting longer and requiring fewer replacements.
Conclusion: A Clear Winner
When compared to the ordinary GEL 12100, the ASTERION CGD 12100 with Carbon Additions stands out as the superior choice for those seeking enhanced performance, faster charging, and cost-efficiency. Whether you need reliable power for industrial use, solar systems, or off-grid applications, the ASTERION CGD 12100 offers the most advanced solution.
