Gel batteries can be discharged to about 80%, but fully discharging them shortens their lifespan.

Gel batteries are a type of lead-acid battery with a gel-like electrolyte. They are often used in applications where a deep discharge is required, such as in solar energy systems, electric vehicles, and emergency power supplies.

The maximum discharge depth of a gel battery varies depending on the specific brand and model, as well as the design specifications of the battery. In general, gel batteries can be discharged to about 80% of their total capacity. However, it is recommended not to fully discharge the battery regularly, as this can reduce the battery's lifespan.

Deep discharges can damage the battery and affect long-term performance. Regularly discharging a gel battery to the maximum level can lead to a shorter lifespan and reduced capacity.

It is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations regarding the maximum discharge depth and use of the gel battery. If you need specific information about the discharge capacity of a particular gel battery, please consult the technical specifications or contact the battery manufacturer.
