## Quick description

## Description

## Who the Deta DB605 is for

The Deta DB605 is a starter battery for cars without Start-Stop: it delivers the current the starter motor needs and then powers lights, control units and audio with the engine off. If your car has no Start-Stop and had a 60 Ah battery, the DB605 is a direct replacement.
At 60 Ah it covers petrol compacts and small diesels, the best-selling format in Europe. The DB605 belongs to the Deta DETA Power range. [The full range of Deta batteries](https://bateriasonline.es/en/deta-batteries)
