It turns out that Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) batteries are not infact all that well sealed. You can perform maintenance on them much the same as you would any other wet cell battery, such as car batteries. In this instructable I will show you how to do this. What you will need: -Distilled water -Small straight screwdriver -superglue or hot glue
By design sealed lead acid batteries are, by their very nature, sealed. This means that if they have been damaged by ovecharging and have dried out then it is problematic to restore them. Ironically it is possible to do this damage in the first place because they aren't completelysealed. There is a rubber cap on top of each cell.
In the highly charged state, a lead acid battery will revert to lead and sulphuric acid, only becoming lead sulphate when discharged. It's quite difficult to photograph the inside of the cells but the photo below is good enough to see that there is no liquid above the plates.
Lead–acid batteries were used to supply the filament (heater) voltage, with 2 V common in early vacuum tube (valve) radio receivers. Portable batteries for miners' cap headlamps typically have two or three cells. Lead–acid batteries designed for starting automotive engines are not designed for deep discharge.
Sulfation prevention remains the best course of action, by periodically fully charging the lead–acid batteries. A typical lead–acid battery contains a mixture with varying concentrations of water and acid.
The lead–acid battery is a type of rechargeable battery first invented in 1859 by French physicist Gaston Planté. It is the first type of rechargeable battery ever created. Compared to modern rechargeable batteries, lead–acid batteries have relatively low energy density. Despite this, they are able to supply high surge currents.
