Lead-acid technology in the EB705
Inside, the EB705 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. It is a robust, well-known technology with a good capacity-to-price ratio, and still the basis of most cars, trucks and traction equipment.
Check this before ordering the Exide EB705
- If your car has Start-Stop, the EB705 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
- The EB705 delivers 540 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- Capacity of the EB705: 70 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- Polarity of the EB705: positive terminal on the left (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- The EB705 needs 270 × 173 × 222 mm of space: measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.

Which battery is equivalent to the Exide EB705?

In cars with energy management (common since 2010) it is worth registering the battery in the control unit so it adjusts charging. In older cars you just connect it.
