Flooded Powersport – with flooded battery technology the electrolyte (battery acid mixed with water) flows freely within the battery cell, circulating through highly porous envelope separators that separate positive and negative plates.These types of batteries need to be installed upright to keep the electrolyte contained and need to be maintained (water added) in order to keep them performing their best. Flooded powersport batteries can be used in any motorcycle or powersport application, as well as lawn & garden and some agriculture applications.
