Snowmobile Batteries

Before winter begins, you should evaluate your snowmobile to make sure it's ready for the season. Checking the battery is a good place to start, since without power you can't start your sled. If you removed the battery last spring for storage, check to make sure it has a full charge. Like car batteries, snowmobile batteries lose power as the temperature drops.

Maintaining a Snowmobile Battery

You should clean all the electrical contacts even if you did not take the battery out of your vehicle. Also check to make sure that the other electrical parts work well, such as the lights and instruments. Most newer equipment takes maintenance-free batteries. Also, some older models will also accept the new batteries.

Sealed batteries are the latest in snowmobile technology. They are totally sealed and cannot leak, and they offer no corrosion and higher cranking power. They save weight too. They also have better resistance to heat and vibration, something that benefits snowmobilers. During the off-season, they also store well.

These batteries go by different names, such as gel cell, dry cell, and AGM. No matter what they are called, they all use similar technology. The result is a battery that requires no maintenance, so you can spend your time in the backcountry instead of in the garage. They outperform conventional wet cell batteries, both regular and high performance ones, because they are designed to withstand greater vibration and higher temperatures.
