Absorbent glass mat batteries are the most popular VRLA [valve-regulated lead-acid] batteries because they can work in a wide range of conditions. The electrolyte is suspended in a thin fiberglass mat that is situated between the lead plates. This allows the batteries to be resistant to vibration, which makes them a great choice for RV [recreational vehicle] and other mobile applications.
