Equalization can damage sealed batteries (AGMs and LiFeP04's are sealed..and I thought gels are too but that's clear to me..never used one)


Equalization is a cycle that runs every so often to basically "overcharge" the battery a little to warm up/stir up the electrolyte in flooded lead acid batteries to prevent sedementation.


Equalizing LiFeP04s (and AGMs) can cause them to vent if overheated too much.....shortening the life of the battery significantly...
