It gives me great pleasure to inform you that my dear friend Mike - Dr. Michael McDonagh, decided to contribute to my podcast. During our conversation, he generously shared a wealth of his expertise on GEL batteries.

Dr. Michael McDonagh is a battery industry veteran from Wales in the UK. He completed his PhD in Metallurgy and Materials Science in 1977. That same year, he joined Crompton Batteries, marking the beginning of his distinguished career in the battery industry.

Since then, he has played several roles in the battery business, including worldwide consultant, and has made major contributions to the battery industry. He and I first met in 1998.

Dr. Michael McDonagh is currently the technical editor of BEST magazine, an international periodical focused on batteries and associated topics.

This episode includes his thoughts and responses to the following questions, as well as a few others.

• How exactly is a Gel battery different from flooded electrolyte batteries?
• How does the performance of a GEL battery vary with a flooded electrolyte battery?
• Do these batteries need to be operated in a specific environment? I mean AC rooms or in rooms with good ventilation?
• Which is a better battery in terms of life and performance? Flooded Type, AGM, or GEL type?
