1, Do lead acid batteries discharge when not in use?
All batteries, regardless of their chemistry, will self-discharge. The rate of self-discharge for lead acid batteries depends on the storage or operating temperature. At a temperature of 80 degrees F. a lead acid battery will self-discharge at a rate of approximately 4% a week. A battery with a 125-amp hour rating would self-discharge at a rate of approximately five amps per week. Keeping this in mind if a 125 AH battery is stored for four months (16 weeks) winter without being charged, it will loose 80 amps of its 125-amp capacity. It will also have severe sulfation, which causes additional loss of capacity. Keep your batteries charged while not in use!
2, Do lead acid batteries develop a memory?
Lead acid batteries do not develop any type of memory.
3, Do I need to completely discharge my lead acid battery before recharging it?
No, in fact you should never discharge your lead acid battery below 80% of its rated capacity. Discharging it below this point or 10.5 volts can damage it.
4, When do I need to perform an equalization charge?
Equalizing should be performed when a battery is first purchased (called a freshening charge) and on a regular basis (every 10 discharge cycles or at least once a month). Reduced performance can also be an indicator that an equalizing charge is needed.
5, What is an equalizing charge?
An equalizing charge for a 12 volt battery requires that it be charged with a voltage of at least 14.4 volts for a period of at least one hour once a month, or every 10 discharge cycles. An equalizing charge prevents battery stratification and reduces sulfation, the leading cause of battery failure.

Generator Battery Information & Role
The main role of an emergency generator batteries is to provide power to the generator engine starter with power when a facility power outage occurs. Depending on the configuration of the generator system setup, batteries can also provide:
1, Power to the digital control panel.
2, During generator operation, battery power can provide power to ancillary panes, small motors that operate on DC current and any DC supplied device within the enclosure.
3, If a secondary or redundant battery set is used in an enclosure, the primary battery source can provide backup power to the secondary or redundant set.
4, Automatic louvers and vents are powered by an AC source. When the system automatic transfer switch allows power to the grid, power is routed to vents and louvers.
