The sealed TurboStart AGM Series 16 volt battery (part # S16V) utilizes the latest state of the art AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) separator technology. Because they can't leak, even if the container is damaged, we're able to ship our TurboStart AGM Series types fully charged so the battery is ready to go when you get it.
The unique valve regulated design ensures that each cell operates at a slight positive pressure allowing the hydrogen and oxygen gas recombination process to occur within the battery which virtually eliminates on - charge gassing. No more maintenance and no more acid mess!
The S16V maintenance free 16 volt battery is leakproof and spillproof and has a low profile "Bolt-in" terminal design for lug style terminal hook ups.
The TurboStart AGM Series 16 volt charger (part # AGM25A19V) is fully automatic with a 25 amp output and has been upgraded over the standard TurboStart 16 volt charger to be able to charge either AGM or flooded 16 volt types. A charger curcuit board chip is available for the AGM Series 16 volt battery to allow existing TurboStart 16 volt users to upgrade their standard TurboStart charger to the new AGM Series charger design. Our 16VRES step down voltage reducer is also available for use with the AGM Series 16 volt battery which allows the racer to run 14 volts to desired components.
Racers in all forms of motorsports have made the switch to 16 Volts. As the innovator of the 16 volt concept to racing, Axion Battery Products Inc. is proud of the fact that more than 95% of the competitors in the National Hot Rod Association's (NHRA) professional drag racing class of Pro Stock and the International Hot Rod Association's (IHRA) professional classes of Pro Stock and Pro Modified have made the switch to the TurboStart 16 volt system. The patented TurboStart 16 volt system is also widely used in circle track racing including such sanctions as NASCAR, Busch Grand National and ASA.
The secret behind 16 volts is the performance advantage gained from the hotter spark produced by the higher voltage. Additional 16 volt benefits include a faster spinning starter and higher volume flow from electric water pumps and fuel pumps
