What it means that the DC700 is lead-acid
Inside, the DC700 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the DC700 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.
Before ordering the DC700, check this
- If your car has Start-Stop, the DC700 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
- The DC700 delivers 640 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- With 70 Ah, the DC700 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- Polarity of the DC700: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- The DC700 needs 278 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L3): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
