Lead carbon batteries have faster charge/discharge rates. Standard lead-type batteries have between maximum 5-20% of their rated capacity charge/discharge rates meaning you can charge or discharge the batteries between 5 – 20 hours without causing any long term damage to the units. Carbon Lead has a theoretical unlimited charge/discharge rate.

Lead carbon batteries are cost-competitive with gel type batteries. Gel batteries are still slightly cheaper to buy upfront, but carbon batteries are only slightly more. The current price difference between Tubular Gel and Carbon batteries is roughly 10%. Take into consideration that carbon lasts for approximately 30% longer and you can see why it’s a better value for money option.
