What it means that the EC900 is lead-acid

The EC900 is a conventional lead-acid battery, with plates immersed in liquid electrolyte. Avoid leaving them discharged, as they sulphate, and charge them with a charger that cuts off or switches to maintenance when finished.

What to look at before buying the EC900

  • If your car has Start-Stop, the EC900 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
  • Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 720 A or less, the EC900 covers your engine.
  • Your current battery should say about 90 Ah; a little more is also fine.
  • The EC900 has the positive terminal on the right: compare it with your current battery.
  • The EC900 needs 353 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L5): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
