What to look at before buying the EA722

  • Length, width and height of the EA722: 278 × 175 × 175 mm (European case size LB3).
  • With the terminals facing you, the positive terminal of the EA722 is on the right.
  • Capacity of the EA722: 72 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.

  • If your car has Start-Stop, the EA722 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
