Description
Premium power storage engineered for Australian touring, off-grid solar, and marine applications where reliability isn't optional.
The Victron BAT412201085 is a professional-grade 12V/220Ah AGM deep cycle battery built for demanding applications where failure isn't an option. Engineered with Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) technology and flat-plate AGM construction, this 65kg powerhouse delivers 220Ah of usable capacity through a 20-hour discharge cycle at 25°C. With a 12-year float design life and exceptional deep discharge recovery capabilities, it's the go-to choice for off-grid solar systems, expedition vehicles, marine installations, and backup power applications across Australia.
This maintenance-free battery features sealed VRLA construction that eliminates the need for water top-ups while preventing gas leakage during normal operation. The M8 copper terminals provide reliable high-current connections, and with 650 Cold Cranking Amps and a 250-minute reserve capacity, it handles both sustained loads and power bursts with equal confidence. This item must be installed by a licensed electrician.

Features & Benefits
Exceptional Deep Discharge Recovery – Bounces back from heavy discharge cycles that would cripple conventional batteries, perfect for multi-day off-grid adventures where you're running fridges, lighting, and communication gear without recharging.
Ultra-Low Self-Discharge Rate – Maintains over 98% charge after a month of storage at 20°C, meaning your caravan or boat is ready to go even after weeks of sitting idle between trips.
Extreme Cycle Life Performance – Delivers 1800 cycles at 30% depth of discharge, making it ideal for solar systems where daily cycling is the norm rather than the exception across the Australian outback.
Maintenance-Free VRLA Design – Sealed construction eliminates water top-ups and acid checks, saving you hours of maintenance over the battery's lifespan while preventing corrosive spills in vehicle installations.
High Cold Cranking Performance – 650 CCA ensures reliable starting power even in alpine conditions or early morning desert starts where temperatures drop unexpectedly.
Professional-Grade AGM Construction – Absorbent Glass Mat technology immobilises electrolyte for superior vibration resistance on corrugated tracks, while enabling the high discharge rates needed for inverter loads.
Extended Reserve Capacity – 250 minutes of sustained power delivery means your essential systems keep running even when charging isn't immediately available during equipment failures or extended cloudy periods.
Temperature-Resilient Design – Maintains performance across Australia's extreme temperature ranges, from Tasmanian winters to Top End summers, though extended high-temperature exposure will impact overall service life.
