The Exide EK960 at a glance
The Exide EK960 is a battery for cars with Start-Stop: it withstands many more starting and partial-discharge cycles than a conventional battery and powers the electronics every time the engine stops at the lights. It takes repeated discharges without losing capacity the way a conventional battery would.
At 96 Ah it moves into large diesels, SUVs, vans and cars with heavy electrical equipment. The EK960 belongs to the Exide EXIDE AGM range. See all Exide batteries

What to look at before buying the EK960
- The EK960 needs 353 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L5): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
- Polarity of the EK960: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- With 96 Ah, the EK960 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 850 A or less, the EK960 covers your engine.
- The EK960 is AGM: it replaces an AGM or an EFB of the same size. You can swap an EFB for an AGM, but not an AGM for an EFB.
What it means that the EK960 is AGM
The EK960 is AGM: the electrolyte is absorbed in glass fibre mats, so it is sealed and spill-proof. It withstands many more cycles than a conventional lead battery, at the cost of being more sensitive to overcharging.
Frequently asked questions about the Exide EK960
EK960 or EK1060: which one suits me?
Compared with the EK960, the Exide EK1060 has 10 Ah more and 100 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 950 A or more, choose the EK1060; if it says 850 A or less, the EK960 is enough. Mind the space: the EK1060 measures 392 × 175 × 190 mm.
Can the Exide EK960 be used in a car with Start-Stop?
Yes. As an AGM battery, the EK960 handles automatic engine stop and brake energy recovery, and it can replace an EFB of the same size.
How much does the Exide EK960 weigh?
26.1 kg, with 96 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Exide EK1060 (106 Ah) weighs 29 kg.
Which battery is equivalent to the Exide EK960?
Only other AGM batteries with its dimensions and polarity: Fulmen FK960, Tudor TK960 and Deta DK960. Neither an EFB nor a conventional battery replaces the EK960.
What case size is the Exide EK960?
Case size L5: 353 × 175 × 190 mm. The EK960 fits any standard L5 battery tray such as the Fulmen FK960.
Which side is the positive terminal on the Exide EK960?
On the EK960, the positive terminal is on the right with the terminals facing you: compare it with your current battery, because with reversed polarity the cables will not reach.
Which charger does the Exide EK960 need?
A charger with an AGM mode that limits voltage to about 14.4-14.7 V. Never an old unregulated charger: overcharging dries out an AGM beyond repair.
