✦ Synopsis

Use of lead-calcium batteries in automotive applications offers definite advantages in the areas of overcharge, high temperature, water usage, and self-discharge. The Delco Freedom battery with wrought expanded grids additionally provides increased resistance to corrosion. Customer satisfaction with the sealed, maintenance-free battery has been well established in the field. Still to be recognized are some aspects of static testing in the laboratory. This technology is now poised for the future by offering battery location flexibility in the vehicle and meeting the no maintenance expectations of the customer.
