Unmatched Cold Start Performance

Compared to other brands at a similar price point, Atom Batteries excel in cold start performance. With high Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) ratings standard across the product line, some gel models deliver an incredible 300A, while competitors achieve only 150A in equivalent batteries. This ensures reliable starts even in the harshest conditions. Imagine trying to start your bike on a frosty morning – Atom’s high CCA guarantees it will fire up without issues. While many competitors struggle in extreme temperatures, malfunctioning at as little as 30°C, Atom Batteries are rated to withstand temperatures from -40°C to 50°C, making them the most dependable choice for challenging environments. High CCA is crucial for older bikes and bikes that have been standing unused for a long time.

Industry-Leading Capacity

Atom Batteries set the standard for capacity, offering up to 30Ah, almost double that of most other brands with similar specifications. This ensures your motorcycle has the power it needs for every ride. Unlike many competitors, Atom’s commitment to quality guarantees consistent performance and long-lasting durability. For example, on a long ride through remote areas, having a battery with higher capacity can prevent unexpected breakdowns, ensuring safety and reliability. Adequate capacity guarantees your battery can support all electrical components during long rides, which is essential, especially when you’re far from home or on a remote trail.

Advanced Technology and Materials

Atom Batteries utilize 99.994% pure lead ingot internals and super durable ABS casings, which are more advanced than the recycled 70% purity materials used by many other brands. This high purity results in better conductivity, enhanced safety, and a longer lifespan, providing riders with a product they can trust under all conditions. For instance, a higher purity lead ensures the battery performs reliably in extreme weather, whether you’re riding through winter snow or summer heat. This means you can count on your battery to work in a variety of real-world conditions, offering consistent performance and long-lasting durability.

Competitive Pricing

Despite their superior quality, Atom Batteries offer exceptional value. While other brands might charge a premium for high performance, Atom Batteries deliver top-tier features and reliability at an affordable price. For example, an Atom battery priced at £35.99 rivals competitors’ batteries priced at £74.99 or more. This makes Atom the smart choice for riders who want the best performance without breaking the bank. Balancing performance and cost is vital for making high-quality batteries accessible. With Atom, you get top-notch performance without overspending, making it easier to maintain your bike and invest in other essential gear.

One-year Warranty

Atom Batteries offer a cost effective range of options to get your bike back on the road as quickly as possible. Whether you are a commuter, adventure biker or fair weather rider, there is a battery in the Atom range to suit your needs. All Atom batteries are pre-sealed and ready to fit straight from the box. Atom batteries come as standard with a one year warranty to cover any manufacturer issues, so you can have peace of mind that the battery you buy will perform the way you need it to. Atom batteries will replace your stock motorcycle battery with no need for modification to your battery box.

AGM Batteries:

Composition: AGM batteries use an absorbed glass mat and battery acid. The absorbed glass mat is a fine fiberglass mat capable of absorbing sulfuric acid. These batteries contain just enough liquid to keep the fiberglass wet.

Strengths:

High Burst of Amps: AGM batteries excel at providing a high burst of amps when needed.

Colder Climates: They perform well in colder climates.

Lower Internal Resistance: AGM batteries have lower internal resistance, allowing them to output a higher burst of amps.

Faster Recharge: They recharge more quickly than GEL batteries.

Applications:

Vehicle Applications: AGM batteries are commonly used in vehicles due to their power and affordability.

More robust for start/stop driving, low internal resistance.

High cranking power even on cold days

Highly vibration resistant

Increased power density over acid alternatives

Composed of sulfuric acid absorbed into glass fibre mat, AGM batteries are leak free, can be mounted in any orientation and feature higher cranking power than alternative lead acid batteries.

AGM is the right choice if you need:

High cranking power (big bike etc)

Weight isn’t an issue

Better performance in colder climates

Faster recharge

GEL Batteries:

Composition: GEL batteries contain a mix of sulfuric acid and fumed silica, creating a gel-like substance that remains immobile.

Strengths:

Slow Discharge Applications: GEL batteries are better suited for slow discharge applications.

Warm Climates: GEL batteries thrive in warmer climates.

Steady Power Delivery: They provide steady power delivery.

Vibration Resilience: GEL batteries are resilient to vibration.

Opt for GEL Batteries if you require:

Slow discharge capabilities (can be stored longer)

Reliable performance in warm climates.

Similarities:

Both AGM and GEL batteries have a sealed design and are regulated by a series of valves to prevent leakage.

The pressure valves in both battery types retain toxic gases when they are flooded.

Both are resistant to vibration (AGM moreso)

Lead Acid:

Lead-acid batteries are a fundamental type of rechargeable battery. They consist of lead electrodes immersed in a sulfuric acid electrolyte. This is old battery technology – having been invented over one hundred years ago.

Composition:

Positive Plate: Made of lead dioxide (PbO₂).

Negative Plate: Composed of pure lead (Pb).

Electrolyte: A solution of sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄).

Working Principle:

During discharge, a chemical reaction occurs between the plates and the electrolyte, producing electrical energy.

When charging, the opposite reaction occurs, storing energy for later use.

Reliable: Widely used due to their reliability and cost-effectiveness.

Low Energy Density: Compared to modern batteries, lead-acid batteries have relatively low energy density.

High Surge Currents: Despite low energy density, they can supply high surge currents.

Short Cycle Lifespan: Typically less than 500 deep cycles.

Long Charging Times: Charging can take a while.

Lead Acid is a good choice if you require:

A cheap solution

Don’t need to mount the battery on its side

Have a classic motorcycle
