## Inside the EG1705: lead-acid technology

Inside, the EG1705 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the EG1705 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.

## What to look at before buying the EG1705

- The EG1705 needs 514 × 218 × 210 mm of space: measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
- With 170 Ah, the EG1705 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- The EG1705 delivers 950 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.

### Exide EG1705 or EG1353?

Compared with the EG1705, the Exide EG1353 has 35 Ah less and 50 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 1,000 A or more, choose the EG1353; if it says 950 A or less, the EG1705 is enough. Both measure 514 × 218 × 210 mm, so they fit the same tray.

### How much does the Exide EG1705 weigh?

The EG1705 weighs 42.5 kg. For reference, the Exide EG1353 (135 Ah) weighs 39.8 kg.

### Which battery is equivalent to the Exide EG1705?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Tudor TG1705, Fulmen FG1705 and Deta DG1705. As the EG1705 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

### Are truck batteries fitted in pairs?

Almost always, in series for 24 V. Replace them in matched pairs: mixing a new one with an old one unbalances charging and shortens the new one's life.
