Power-Sonic PDC Series: Reliable 12V 80Ah AGM Deep Cycle Battery

The Power-Sonic 12V 80Ah AGM Deep Cycle Battery from the PDC series is engineered for applications demanding consistent, long-duration power delivery. Unlike standard starter batteries designed for short, high-current bursts, this unit features oversized negative plates and a specialised paste formulation optimised for deep cycling. This construction allows the battery to withstand regular charge and discharge cycles without significant degradation, making it an ideal choice for off-grid energy storage, marine auxiliary power, and mobility solutions.

Built with Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) technology, the electrolyte is suspended in fibreglass separators, creating a spill-proof and maintenance-free design. This valve-regulated construction ensures safe operation in any orientation, a critical feature for marine and caravan installations where space is limited and movement is constant. The rugged ABS case, rated UL94-HB for impact resistance, protects internal components from vibration and physical stress, ensuring longevity in harsh environments.

Superior Deep Cycle Performance

Deep cycle batteries are subjected to different stresses than starting batteries. The Power-Sonic PDC range addresses this by incorporating special additives in the active material paste, enhancing performance during deep discharge situations. With a nominal capacity of 80Ah at the 20-hour rate, this battery provides reliable energy for extended periods. Whether powering a trolling motor, running lighting systems in a camper, or supporting a mobility scooter, the consistent voltage output ensures your equipment operates efficiently.

• True Deep Cycle Design: Oversized plates and specialised paste formulation support repeated deep discharges.
• Spill-Proof AGM Technology: Valve-regulated design allows safe mounting in any position.
• High Energy Density: Compact footprint delivers substantial power relative to its size and weight (approx. 22.7 kg).
• Rugged Construction: Impact-resistant ABS case meets UL94-HB standards for durability.
• Transport Approved: Certified for air transport under D.O.T., I.A.T.A., F.A.A., and C.A.B. regulations.

Versatile Applications for Mobile and Stationary Use

This 12V 80Ah battery is versatile enough for a wide range of uses. Its ability to handle deep cycles makes it suitable for:

• Marine and Boating: Reliable auxiliary power for electronics, lighting, and trolling motors.
• Caravans and RVs: Stable energy source for living amenities when off-grid.
• Mobility Solutions: Consistent power for electric wheelchairs, scooters, and golf carts.
• Renewable Energy Systems: Effective storage for small-scale solar or wind setups requiring regular cycling.

Technical Specifications and Safety

The battery features a maximum short circuit discharge current of 1725A, providing robust protection against sudden loads. It operates effectively within a discharge temperature range of -20C to 55C, accommodating various Australian climate conditions. For optimal lifespan, use a recommended charger such as the Power-Sonic PSC-126000ACX to ensure proper voltage regulation during the recharge phase.

Dimensions are compact at 260mm (L) x 168mm (W) x 208mm (H), with a total height including terminals of 230mm, allowing for easy integration into existing battery compartments. The integrated carry handle facilitates safer handling during installation and maintenance.
