FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND FAQ'S
The Urban range is used as a portable Dual Battery System for vehicles which cannot fit a dual battery system under the bonnet. The unit offers the versatility of a dual battery system, which can be separated from the vehicle and used as a portable battery bank that offers the capability of spike protected jump-starting.
What type of batteries are used in the Urban range
The battery packs consist of the latest AGM cells; Absorbed glass mat. These cells are completely maintenance free so they require little to no attention. Simply charge and use. The AGM batteries allow for not only deep cycling but they additionally allow for cranking ability. The cells like to charge at a voltage rate between 13-14 Volts, Which means that they are fully capable of charging via the supplied vehicle charging kit.
Will they leak or spill?
No.The AGM batteries completely sealed batteries, meaning that you will not have to worry about the cells leaking acid, fuses, gases or any nasty odours.Due to the fact the batteries are completely sealed, it allows for the batteries to be stored on any one of their sides – even up-side down while working to full efficiency!
Can I store the unit in a non ventilated area, such as under a bed?
Yes. Considering that the batteries are completely sealed it means that the batteries do not require a ventilated area for storage. This results in the perfect battery to have stored in an ‘out of the way’ area such as under a bed in a caravan or under a vehicles seat, even in a draw in the back of a 4WD!
Can I use Solar Panels to charge my unit?
Yes. Solar Panels can be used for charging and/or maintaining the Urban battery packs. Keep in mind that solar panels that are rated at 10 watts or higher must be regulated connected to any type of battery. This will prevent the solar panel from over-charging the battery and potentially causing damage.
Have a look at our range of solar panels to find the one to suit you.
Will it run my fridge?
Yes it will and many other appliances also! One of the main accessories in which people use the Urban range is for running 12/240 Volt compressor type fridges. As the batteries are deep cycle it allows for the running of accessories even while the battery is charging through the vehicle charging system. Solar or even 240 Volt!
We do not recommend running gas fridges for prolonged durations due to the high power draw (approx 12+ Amps per hour).
How long will the Urban battery last while running appliances?
The duration of time that the Urban battery packs will last with running accessories such as a fridge largely depends on the amp draw of the appliance in question.
For example: a fridge with an average draw of 1 amp per hour would run for 30hours with a 30amp hour unit. To work out the size you need simply multiply the average amp per hour draw of your fridge by the amount of hours you want your fridge to run for. Take into account that if you are driving a little every day your unit will be recharging i.e. 1 hour of driving you will have put 25% charge back into your battery.
