What it means that the FT230D is AGM

The FT230D 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.

Before ordering the FT230D, check this

  • Measure the space: the FT230D takes up 181 × 77 × 167 mm.
  • Capacity of the FT230D: 22 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
  • Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 180 A or less, the FT230D covers your engine.
