Pure Lead - Long Life

When the grid goes down, you need to know that your backup solution will be there to kick in at a moments notice and deliver the power required to keep your network running. For your peace of mind, you need backup batteries that will deliver exceptional performance even after a long period of time.


"Our AGM thin plate pure lead technology delivers increased power density."


The NSB RED Battery® provides long life in the 20⁰-35⁰C (68⁰-95⁰F) range. This means huge potential cost savings, due to reduced battery replacement and maintenance. Conventional lead acid batteries use lead alloys with additives which increase the strength so they can withstand handling during the battery making process. The downside of using these alloys and additives is that the batteries suffer from faster corrosion and component aging.

Our advanced manufacturing process eliminates the need for alloys and additives - our AGM thin plate pure lead technology delivers larger and thinner plates, which means more surface area for active material reactions, which increases power density.
