With the deepening of the concept of green travel, e-bikes are becoming more and more popular due to their convenient and environmentally friendly features. As the core component of e-bikes, Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries play a crucial role. This article will provide you with a detailed introduction to the application, performance characteristics and maintenance precautions of VRLA batteries in the field of electric bicycles.

1. Application of VRLA batteries in electric bicycles

Electric bicycles use VRLA batteries as a power source, mainly due to the stability and long life of VRLA batteries. The VRLA battery provides sufficient power for the e-bike, enabling the rider to enjoy a smooth riding experience. At the same time, VRLA batteries have high safety performance, which reduces the risk of battery failure during driving.

2. The performance characteristics of VRLA batteries

    1. High capacity retention rate: VRLA batteries in the charging and discharging process, the capacity of the higher rate of retention to ensure that the stability and reliability of the battery.

    2. Long service life: VRLA batteries have a long service life, up to 3-5 years under normal use conditions, which reduces the frequency of battery replacement.

    3. Good safety performance: VRLA batteries adopt valve-controlled design, which can effectively prevent the electrolyte leakage and the internal pressure of the battery from being too high, and improve the safety performance of the battery.

    4. Stable voltage: The voltage of VRLA battery is stable at 12V, which provides stable power output for e-bikes.

    5. Wide range of application: VRLA batteries are suitable for a wide range of environments and working conditions, including high temperature, low temperature and humidity.

3.  VRLA battery maintenance precautions

     1. Charging environment: Please place the VRLA battery in a well-ventilated, dry environment for charging.

     2. Charging Time: Avoid charging for a long time, it is recommended to unplug the power promptly after the battery is full.

     3. Charging Temperature: The charging temperature range of VRLA batteries is 0-45℃. Too high or too low temperature will affect the battery performance.

     4. Depth of Discharge: To avoid over-discharge of the battery, it is recommended to charge the battery when the remaining battery power is not less than 20%.

     5. Regular Inspection: Regularly check the appearance of the VRLA batteries, the connecting wires and valves and other parts of the battery to ensure that the batteries are in good condition.

In short, valve-regulated sealed lead-acid batteries (VRLA) have become an ideal choice in the field of electric bicycles by virtue of their stable performance, long service life, and safety performance. As the e-bike market continues to expand, the application of VRLA batteries in it will become more and more widespread. Riders should use and maintain VRLA batteries properly to ensure the good performance of e-bikes and enjoy the convenience and pleasure of green traveling.
