H&K Equipment Electric Vehicle Battery The Deserthog®

H&K Equipment of Pittsburgh is proud to offer The Deserthog Battery. Introduced in July, 2002, the Deserthog is the newest addition to the EnerSys Ironclad® family of batteries. It's the most "maintenance free" flooded battery in the industry! The Deserthog features a unique cell design that holds up to 4 more inches of water than standard batteries of the same cell size. That extends watering intervals from once every week to about once every few months depending on the size of the battery. The result is a more efficient operation and lower maintenance costs. Available in three sizes (85, 100, 125 A.H.), it's the ideal choice for medium to heavy-duty applications that are not suitable for sealed batteries. More water means less maintenance The Deserthog was designed with a higher jar, a bit less sediment space and no special alloys to maximize water space. There is more space above the plates than standard batteries of the same size. We've filled that extra space with water—up to 132% more water—drastically reducing the watering intervals from once every week to once every few months! To make things even easier, we've attached Flip-Top vent caps for easy access when it is time to water. Watering times are reduced up to 50% with these Flip-Top caps. We'll even do the watering for you! EnerSys offers an optional 5-year maintenance program with every Deserthog battery purchase.
