About batteries: Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL)

A further step development AGM is Odyssey ® TPPL or Thin Plate Lead with flat 99.99% pure virgin - not alloy. Pure lead be made thinner, so will fit the battery. More battery plates mean plate surface area. means more power twice much as batteries. In fact, these batteries are capable providing engine cranking pulses in excess 2250 amps for 5 seconds – double triple that equally sized conventional batteries, even at very low temperatures. And they can handle 400 charge-discharge cycles to 80% depth of discharge.

Also using pure lead, but with a quite different construction, are the orbital batteries of Cyclon, Genesis and Odyssey, featuring two long pure lead-tin plates wound into a tight spiral. This design is said to eliminate plate-to-plate movement and shedding of active mass.
