Description
A GM battery is a rechargeable battery that provides electrical energy to your auto.It’s also known as an SLI battery (abbreviation of starting-lighting-ignition) and its principal purpose would be to start the GM engine.
Once the GM engine is running, power for the car is supplied by the alternator.
Usually, starting discharges less than three per cent of the battery capacity. SLI batteries are designed to discharge a high outburst of current, measured in amperes, and then be quickly recharged.
They are not designed for deep discharge, as well as a full discharge can reduce the battery’s lifespan.
