What to look at before buying the EB605

  • Length, width and height of the EB605: 230 × 173 × 222 mm (European case size D23).
  • With the terminals facing you, the positive terminal of the EB605 is on the left.
  • With 60 Ah, the EB605 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
  • Cold cranking: 480 A (EN), equal to or higher than the original.
  • If your car has Start-Stop, the EB605 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.

Inside the EB605: lead-acid technology

Inside, the EB605 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the EB605 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.

Frequently asked questions about the Exide EB605

EB605 or EL605: which one suits me?

Compared with the EB605, the Exide EL605 has 40 A more cranking power and EFB technology. If your current battery says 520 A or more, choose the EL605; if it says 480 A or less, the EB605 is enough. Both measure 230 × 173 × 222 mm, so they fit the same tray.

Exide EB605 or EB604: what is the difference?

Only the polarity: the EB605 has the positive terminal on the left and the EB604 the positive terminal on the right. Capacity (60 Ah), cranking power and dimensions are identical.

Can the Exide EB605 be used in a car with Start-Stop?

No. The EB605 is a lead-acid battery for cars without automatic engine stop; Start-Stop needs an EFB or an AGM; in this same size there is the Tudor TL605.

How much does the Exide EB605 weigh?

14.2 kg, with 60 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Exide EL605 (60 Ah) weighs 15.4 kg.

Which battery is equivalent to the Exide EB605?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Tudor TB605, Fulmen FB605 and Deta DB605. As the EB605 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

What case size is the Exide EB605?

Case size D23: 230 × 173 × 222 mm. The EB605 fits any standard D23 battery tray such as the Tudor TB605.

Which charger does the Exide EB605 need?

An automatic lead-acid charger with cut-off or maintenance mode, rated at 10 to 20% of its capacity in amps. If it is a vented type, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
