Lead-acid technology in the PB-44.0B

Inside, the PB-44.0B is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the PB-44.0B is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.

What to look at before buying the PB-44.0B

  • If your car has Start-Stop, the PB-44.0B is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
  • The PB-44.0B delivers 440 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
  • Capacity of the PB-44.0B: 44 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
  • Polarity of the PB-44.0B: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
  • Length, width and height of the PB-44.0B: 207 × 175 × 175 mm (European case size LB1).
