Alcatel-Lucent okay for car audio?

[baron_of_bass]

First off this isn't for me. I'm piecing together a setup for a friend for decent price.

Would these batteries be okay for car audio?

Not an AGM.

Would vent and spill.

Would not use.

I've read that they are sealed AGMs

Thanks for your information

In your pic it says they are Lead Acid batteries. That leads me to believe that they aren't AGM batteries.

I'm not a fan of AGM batteries personally. have seen way too many fail in a short period of time. Seems guys here love them though, not really sure why. At least with SLA batteries they slowly die, versus AGM which just fall off a table when it's their time, no warning.

Technically yes, it's a sealed battery.

But it -is- a wet cell battery, and it will vent gasses as it charges and discharges. While it has a valve that's not supposed to let it spill, it still can. We're never supposed to install these in a passenger compartment or trunk without venting them outside the vehicle.

Agms are lead acid batteries as well.

They also vent they just aren't spillable.

No clue if these Batts are agm though.
