## Exide EQ1000 vs EP900 and EM960

The real differences between the EQ1000 and the closest Exide models:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Exide EP900 | 100 Ah | 800 A | 330 × 173 × 240 | 31.2 kg |
| Exide EM960 | 100 Ah | 800 A | 330 × 173 × 240 | 31.2 kg |

- Exide EP900: 20 Ah less, 425 A less cranking power, a different case (330 × 173 × 240 mm).
- Exide EM960: 20 Ah less, 425 A less cranking power, a different case (330 × 173 × 240 mm).

## AGM technology in the EQ1000

The EQ1000 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.

## What to look at before buying the EQ1000

- Length, width and height of the EQ1000: 286 × 269 × 230 mm.
- Your current battery should say about 120 Ah; a little more is also fine.
- The EQ1000 delivers 1,225 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.

### Can the Exide EQ1000 be used for starting and service at the same time?

Only if it is dual purpose. A starter battery is not built for deep discharge, and a service battery does not deliver the current peak the engine asks for.
