## Equivalents and alternatives to the Ritar EV12-240

Other AGM batteries that fit the EV12-240's tray with the same polarity: an AGM can only be replaced by another AGM.

| Model | Technology | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ritar RA12-240A | AGM | 254 Ah | – | 522 × 240 × 224 |

## Ritar EV12-240 vs RA12-240A, RA12-225B and RA12-200A: which one to choose?

The real differences between the EV12-240 and the closest Ritar models:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ritar EV12-240 (this one) | 240 Ah | 840 A | 522 × 240 × 224 | 65 kg |
| Ritar RA12-240A | 254 Ah | – | 522 × 240 × 224 | 43.7 kg |
| Ritar RA12-225B | 238 Ah | – | 522 × 240 × 240 | 63 kg |
| Ritar RA12-200A | 212 Ah | – | 522 × 240 × 224 | 55.5 kg |

- Ritar RA12-240A: 14 Ah more, the same dimensions.
- Ritar RA12-225B: 2 Ah less, a different height (240 mm instead of 224 mm). It only fits if there is room for 240 mm of height.
- Ritar RA12-200A: 28 Ah less, the same dimensions.

## AGM technology in the EV12-240

The EV12-240 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 EV12-240, check this

- Measure the space: the EV12-240 takes up 522 × 240 × 224 mm.
- With 240 Ah, the EV12-240 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 840 A or less, the EV12-240 covers your engine.
