Discover Why a Full Throttle Series AGM is the Right Battery for Your Application

With the wide range of battery options on the market today, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and truly know which one is best for your particular application. Fullriver batteries have a stellar reputation as a premium, durable, and ultra-reliable choice and our Full Throttle Series batteries are built to not only meet, but exceed your specific needs, no matter what they may be.

How Do You Measure Performance?

Is it a burst of power, or resiliency and consistency? Is it a streak that is brilliant but short, or the ability to bounce back from adversity and return to high performance?

If you are sitting on a rocket staring down a quarter mile of asphalt, peak high-capacity power may be enough. But if you are someone who depends on your vehicle being usable day-in and day-out, long term performance and recoverability should be top of mind when it comes to batteries.

From Decades of Experience, a Quality Product Emerges

Fullriver’s experience making the highest quality, best performing premium AGM batteries for over 30 years has given us invaluable experience making batteries that are ‘oops’ proof.

That knowledge was used to create the Full Throttle Series AGM, which is a combination of materials and construction that – according to reports from overlanders, dune goons, rock crawlers, and anglers across the nation – allow our batteries to recover from discharge levels that crush our competitors.

And in case you thought that field reports weren’t enough, we also have the lowest warranty rate in the industry (.24%), even though we approve over 95% of the warranties submitted.

Mistakes Happen, But We’ve Got Your Back

Now, we don’t suggest you drain your battery every day and leave it discharged for days on end – that is ill-advised and will void your warranty. But for normal, occasional mistakes, we have integrated features that allow us to recover from your mishaps:

Pure lead that decreases internal resistance so energy flows cleanly in and out of the battery and is less damaging to the internal paste and fiber glass mat.

A calcium alloy that is typically used only in cycling batteries, providing anti-corrosion properties, and decreasing self-discharge.

The industry’s highest valve settings that prevent liquid loss during recharge and extending the useful life of the batteries.

Over 30 years of making batteries for the toughest applications and environments that man, nature, and the insanity that ensues when the two test each other’s mettle.

Set It and Forget It

So, if you had a long day out on the water/trail/sand and went straight into a long night under the stars, don’t sweat it – put your Full Throttle Batteries on charge when you get home, and we’ll get you back out there without a side stop at the battery store.

Unless you don’t have our batteries already. Then hit your local Fullriver/Full Throttle Distributor today, so that you can install a battery as resilient and powerful as you are.

Top 3 Reasons AGM Batteries Excel: Tolerant, Resilient, Versatile

In today’s short article we’re going to look at the top 3 reasons why AGM battery technology, and more specifically Fullriver AGM batteries, excel. But the reader may be asking, “Are there only three reasons?” Well, this list could easily be one hundred reasons why AGM batteries excel, it could literally be 1,000 reasons. AGM batteries have so much to offer, but sometimes the most important things aren’t always obvious. So, let’s get after it and have a look.

As Elvis famously said, there’s “A whole lotta shakin’ going on!” And, whether you realize it or not, it could be causing a shorter life for your batteries. Material handling, RV, AWP, UTV, golf, floor care, trucking, heavy equipment, all these applications involve movement over less than smooth surfaces. Flooded batteries have plates that are unsupported sort of dangling internally, while other battery types may have sensitive electronic components. From a design POV, these formats are much less tolerant of vibration. And, in the end internal components break. Thankfully, the entire line of Fullriver AGM batteries account for these downsides in multiple ways. Beginning with cast grids, thick plates, cells packed under compression, and cell connections that allow the cell group to float without compromise. This isn’t just marketing, our batteries are tested and certified to comply with the needs of vibration rich environments, (I.E., most of the real world).

“Oh shoot!” That feeling when you turn the key and the car won’t start, or step aboard your trailer and discover the lights won’t turn on. While we wouldn’t recommend intentionally abusing batteries, sometimes it happens. If you’ve worked around batteries long enough, you’ve been there. We frequently hear from customers who have inadvertently overcharged, undercharged, short-circuited, left a light on, etc. and yet were able to recover their battery investment. Much of our resilience is due to the quality of materials used to build our batteries, and the very special blend that is used to make our plate paste. Newer technologies like lithium can rarely handle these catastrophic scenarios due to their built-in fail-safes simply shutting the battery down, often for good. Flooded batteries, too can give up the ghost after a catastrophic event. Our friends at Merlin Power put our batteries through their paces with some very intentional abuse testing. Check out their video here and see for yourself, but don’t try this at home.

Versatile: able to adapt or be adapted to many different functions or activities. The literal definition of great AGM batteries like Fullriver/Full Throttle is their versatility, and adaptability to different functions or activities. Need a battery that can start a twin-diesel engine and run the all of the house amenities? That’s AGM. The same battery that can keep up with the motor controller of your golf cart, can also run your fish finder, or power your off-grid home. And versatility is part of the reason AGM batteries are available almost everywhere when you need them.

Tolerant, resilient, and versatile, qualities that are rare these days, but always sought after. These are the marks of a true AGM battery. Tolerant of vibration, resilient in the face of abuse, and true versatility that allows for use in pretty much any application. These are the reasons that Fullriver AGM batteries excel!
