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.

Frequently asked questions about the Exide EB705

Exide EB705 or EA755?

Compared with the EB705, the Exide EA755 has 5 Ah more and 90 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 630 A or more, choose the EA755; if it says 540 A or less, the EB705 is enough. Both measure 270 × 173 × 222 mm, so they fit the same tray.

What is the difference between the Exide EB705 and the EB704?

They are the same battery with the terminals swapped: positive terminal on the left on the EB705, positive terminal on the right on the EB704. Look at your current battery with the terminals facing you and pick the one that matches.

Can the Exide EB705 be used in a car with Start-Stop?

No. The EB705 is a lead-acid battery for cars without automatic engine stop; Start-Stop needs an EFB or an AGM.

How much does the Exide EB705 weigh?

The EB705 weighs 16 kg. For reference, the Exide EA755 (75 Ah) weighs 17.4 kg.

Which battery is equivalent to the Exide EB705?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Tudor TB705, Fulmen FB705 and Deta DB705. As the EB705 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

Does the new battery need to be registered in the car?

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.
