Who the Exide EL1000 is for
The Exide EL1000 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. The EL1000 is designed for cars that switch the engine off at every stop and restart it dozens of times per trip.
At 100 Ah it moves into large diesels, SUVs, vans and cars with heavy electrical equipment. The EL1000 belongs to the Exide EXIDE EFB range. More Exide batteries

EFB technology in the EL1000
The EL1000 is an EFB: flooded lead-acid with reinforced plates and separators for Start-Stop. It can be replaced by an AGM, but an AGM must never be replaced by an EFB.
Before ordering the EL1000, check this
- The EL1000 is an EFB: it suits cars that had an EFB or a conventional battery. If yours had an AGM, fit another AGM.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 900 A or less, the EL1000 covers your engine.
- Your current battery should say about 100 Ah; a little more is also fine.
- The EL1000 has the positive terminal on the right: compare it with your current battery.
- Measure the space: the EL1000 takes up 353 × 175 × 190 mm (European case size L5).

Can the Exide EL1000 be used in a car with Start-Stop?
