TurboStart 16 Volt Light Weight Racing Battery.
The sealed TurboStart® AGM Series 16 volt battery (part # S16V) utilizes the latest state of the art AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) separator technology. Because they can't leak, even if the container is damaged, we're able to ship our TurboStart® AGM Series types fully charged so the battery is ready to go when you get it.
The unique valve regulated design ensures that each cell operates at a slight positive pressure allowing the hydrogen and oxygen gas recombination process to occur within the battery which virtually eliminates on - charge gassing. No more maintenance and no more acid mess!
The S16V maintenance free 16 volt battery is leakproof and spillproof and has a low profile, 3/8", "Bolt-in" terminal design for lug style terminal hook ups.
The TurboStart® AGM Series 16 volt charger (part # AGM25A19V) is fully automatic with a 25 amp/ 19volt output and has been upgraded over the standard TurboStart® 16 volt charger to be able to charge either AGM or flooded 16 volt types. A charger curcuit board chip is available for the original flooded series 16 volt chargers to allow existing TurboStart® 16 volt users to upgrade their charger to charge the new AGM series batteries. Our 16VRES step down voltage reducer is also available for use with the AGM Series 16 volt battery which allows the racer to run 14 volts to desired components.
Racers in all forms of motorsports have made the switch to 16 volts. TurboStart® is the innovator of the 16 volt concept to racing, and Axion Power tm International Inc. is proud of the fact that more than 95% of the competitors in the National Hot Rod Association's (NHRA) professional drag racing class of Pro Stock and the International Hot Rod Association's (IHRA) professional classes of Pro Stock and Pro Modified have made the switch to the TurboStart® 16 volt system. The patented TurboStart® 16 volt system is also widely used in circle track racing including such sanctions as NASCAR, Busch Grand National and ASA.
The secret behind 16 volts is the performance advantage gained from the hotter spark produced by the higher voltage. Additional 16 volt benefits include a faster spinning starter and higher volume flow from electric water pumps and fuel pumps.
The excessive vibrations and electrical demands that racing puts on a battery are a true test of its durability. We take what we learn at the racetrack and apply that knowledge to every TurboStart® battery we build. Many of the top race car engine and chassis builders now recommend using the TurboStart® 16 volt racing battery over a conventional 12 volt battery.
