## Deta DX1803 vs DE1853 and DE1403: which one to choose?

Torn between the DX1803 and another similar Deta? This is what changes:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Deta DX1803 (this one) | 180 Ah | 1,000 A | 513 × 223 × 223 | 46.1 kg |

| Deta DE1403 | 140 Ah | 800 A | 513 × 189 × 223 | 38.2 kg |

- Deta DE1403: 40 Ah less, 200 A less cranking power, a different case (513 × 189 × 223 mm).

## Inside the DX1803: EFB technology

The DX1803 is an EFB: flooded lead-acid with reinforced plates and separators for Start-Stop. It can be replaced by an AGM, but an AGM must never be replaced by an EFB.

## Check this before ordering the Deta DX1803

- Length, width and height of the DX1803: 513 × 223 × 223 mm.
- Capacity of the DX1803: 180 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 1,000 A or less, the DX1803 covers your engine.

### DX1803 or DE1853: which one suits me?

Compared with the DX1803, the Deta DE1853 has 5 Ah more and 100 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 1,100 A or more, choose the DE1853; if it says 1,000 A or less, the DX1803 is enough. Both measure 513 × 223 × 223 mm, so they fit the same tray.

### How much does the Deta DX1803 weigh?

46.1 kg, with 180 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Deta DE1853 (185 Ah) weighs 46.4 kg.

### Which battery is equivalent to the Deta DX1803?

In EFB or AGM, with its dimensions and polarity: Exide EX1803, Tudor TX1803 and Fulmen FX1803. A conventional battery does not replace the DX1803.

### Are truck batteries fitted in pairs?

Almost always, in series for 24 V. Replace them in matched pairs: mixing a new one with an old one unbalances charging and shortens the new one's life.
