What to look at before buying the DB505
- The DB505 needs 200 × 173 × 222 mm of space: measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
- The DB505 has the positive terminal on the left: compare it with your current battery.
- Your current battery should say about 50 Ah; a little more is also fine.
- The DB505 delivers 360 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- If your car has Start-Stop, the DB505 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
Lead-acid technology in the DB505
Inside, the DB505 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the DB505 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.
