battery that:
is

be opened
is
completely maintenance-free
uses
thixotropic gelled electrolyte
uses
a recombination reaction to prevent the
escape of hydrogen and oxygen gases normally
lost in a flooded lead-acid battery (particularly
in deep cycle applications)
is
non-spillable, and therefore can be operated in virtually
any position. However, upside down installation is not
recommended
