Lead Acid
Lead Acid batteries are a type of rechargeable battery that use lead dioxide and sponge lead as electrodes, with sulfuric acid as the electrolyte. They are commonly used in vehicles, uninterruptible power supplies, and various industrial applications due to their reliability and cost-effectiveness.
These batteries are known for their ability to deliver high surge currents, making them ideal for starting engines. However, they have a limited lifespan and can be heavy compared to other battery types, such as Lithium-ion batteries. Proper recycling is essential to minimize environmental impact, as they contain toxic materials.
