The #1 killer of batteries is acid stratification.

That's bad. We fixed that.

Image

Traditional Batteries

Acid stratification happens when the heavier acid separates from the water in the battery's electrolyte and settles at the bottom of the battery, causing excess corrosion and charge imbalance.

MIXTECH Batteries

Incorporate patented MIXTECH technology that uses the motion of your vehicle to continuously mix the electrolyte preventing acid stratification.

MIXTECH EFB Key Benefits

Improved Standard Micro-Cycle Life

MIXTECH EFB offers greater than 3x the micro-cycle life of conventional batteries tested according to DIN 75073.7.14 and greater than 2x the micro-cycle life of replacement market EFB batteries tested according to DIN 75073.7.14 (Cycle test 17.5% DOD)

MIXTECH Inside

MIXTECH Technology eliminates symptoms related to acid build up. This patented acid mixing achieves 100% homogeneous specific gravity at twice the effectiveness, and less than half the time of pump action mixing elements.

    2. INTEGRATED CARRY HANDLES
    3. CENTRAL DEGASSING MANIFOLD WITH INTEGRATED FLAME ARRESTORS
    4. COLD-FORGED SAE TERMINALS
      Exceeds OEM Specifications
      Product range includes models designed to meet or exceed Original Equipment Manufacturers performance and quality requirements. Complies with Original Part Matching Quality regulations.
      Start-Stop Micro-Cycling
      Designed to support micro-cycling and partial state of charge use typical of Start-Stop, Anti-Idle, highly equipped vehicles and intense urban driving.
      Extreme Temperatures
      Optimized for extreme temperatures. Patented acid mixing technology decreases thermal gradients and dramatically improves life at extreme temperatures (cold or hot) when compared with other high-quality lead-acid batteries.
      Vibration Resistant
      Element bonding utilizes two rows of glue applied along the top of the cell groups that help resist positive plate growth and reduces vibration related failures.
      Carbon Boost
      Negative plate CARBON additives improve Dynamic Charge Acceptance (DCA) by up to 1.5x and significantly reduce charging time. When used in conjunction with MIXTECH, original DCA is maintained at a level 3.5x greater than conventional or EFB batteries within 6 months of installation.
      Enhanced Alloys
      High capacity grids made with Calcium/Tin/Barium enhanced alloys resist corrosion and maximize SHD maintenance free performance and reliability at extreme temperatures. A further advantage of this alloy is its recyclability compared with alloys containing silver.
