In sealed lead-acid batteries (SLA), the electrolyte, or battery acid, is either absorbed in a plate separator or formed into a gel. Because they do not have to be watered and are spill-proof, they are considered low
Low Energy Density: Lead-acid batteries have a low energy density, meaning they can store less energy per unit of weight than other types of batteries. Shorter Lifespan : Lead-acid batteries have a shorter lifespan compared to other types of batteries, typically lasting between 3-5 years.

Wet batteries are the oldest and most common type of lead-acid battery. They have a liquid electrolyte that can spill and require regular maintenance. AGM batteries are a newer type of sealed lead-acid battery that uses a glass mat to absorb the electrolyte, making them maintenance-free. Gel batteries are similar to AGM batteries but use a gel
Liquid air energy storage (LAES) can offer a scalable solution for power management, with significant potential for decarbonizing electricity systems through integration with renewables.
Another variation of a lead–acid battery includes a different design feature—instead of battery with liquid electrolyte open to atmosphere a sealed battery with limited volume of electrolyte is made. The design prevents loss of electrolyte through evaporation, spillage, or gassing in the overcharge phase. Preventing electrolyte loss prolongs battery life.

The ideal storage humidity is 50%; Some sealed lead acid batteries have terminals which will start to rust in very humid conditions. Surface rust can quickly be cleaned away with sandpaper or baking soda mixed with water but if there is serious corrosion this will create an uneven surface on the terminal which could cause connection issues when attempting to use the battery.
