## Quick description

The Exide EK960 is a Start-Stop battery (AGM) with 12 V, 96 Ah and 850 A cold cranking current, case size L5 (353 × 175 × 190 mm), with the positive terminal on the right.

## Description

## 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](https://bateriasonline.es/en/exide-batteries)

## Exide EK960 vs EK1060 and EK820

How the EK960 compares with Exide batteries of similar size and capacity:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Positive | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exide EK960 (this one) | 96 Ah | 850 A | 353 × 175 × 190 | right | 26.1 kg |
| Exide EK1060 | 106 Ah | 950 A | 392 × 175 × 190 | right | 29 kg |
| Exide EK820 | 82 Ah | 800 A | 315 × 175 × 190 | right | 23.3 kg |

- Exide EK1060: 10 Ah more, 100 A more cranking power, a different case (392 × 175 × 190 mm).
- Exide EK820: 14 Ah less, 50 A less cranking power, a different case (315 × 175 × 190 mm).

## Equivalents and alternatives to the Exide EK960

Other AGM batteries that fit the EK960's tray with the same polarity: an AGM can only be replaced by another AGM.

## 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.
