## Tudor TC700 vs TL700, TB712 and TA680

Torn between the TC700 and another similar Tudor? This is what changes:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Positive | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tudor TC700 (this one) | 70 Ah | 640 A | 278 × 175 × 190 | right | 16 kg |
| Tudor TL700 | 70 Ah | 760 A | 278 × 175 × 190 | right | 19.3 kg |
| Tudor TB712 | 71 Ah | 670 A | 278 × 175 × 175 | right | 15.3 kg |
| Tudor TA680 | 68 Ah | 650 A | 277 × 175 × 190 | right | 17 kg |

- Tudor TL700: the same capacity, 120 A more cranking power, the same L3 case, EFB technology.
- Tudor TB712: 1 Ah more, 30 A more cranking power, a different height (175 mm instead of 190 mm, LB3). It is the option if your battery tray cannot take the 190 mm height of the TC700.
- Tudor TA680: 2 Ah less, 10 A more cranking power, the same L3 case.

## Equivalents and alternatives to the Tudor TC700

Batteries that fit the TC700's tray with the same polarity; besides other conventional batteries, an EFB or AGM of this size is a valid upgrade for the TC700.

| Model | Technology | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exide EC700 | Lead-acid | 70 Ah | 640 A | 278 × 175 × 190 |
| Varta E13 | Lead-acid | 70 Ah | 640 A | 278 × 175 × 190 |
| Kronobat SD-70.0 | Lead-acid | 70 Ah | 640 A | 278 × 175 × 190 |
| Fulmen FC700 | Lead-acid | 70 Ah | 640 A | 278 × 175 × 190 |
| Deta DC700 | Lead-acid | 70 Ah | 640 A | 278 × 175 × 190 |
| Exide EA680 | Lead-acid | 68 Ah | 650 A | 277 × 175 × 190 |

Its Bosch equivalent is the Bosch S3 008, the same as for the Varta E13. Bosch is not part of our catalogue; we list it so you can compare.

## Lead-acid technology in the TC700

Inside, the TC700 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the TC700 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.

## Check this before ordering the Tudor TC700

- If your car has Start-Stop, the TC700 is not the right one: it needs an EFB or an AGM.
- The TC700 delivers 640 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.
- With 70 Ah, the TC700 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.
- Polarity of the TC700: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
- Length, width and height of the TC700: 278 × 175 × 190 mm (European case size L3).

## Frequently asked questions about the Tudor TC700

### TC700 or TL700: which one suits me?

Compared with the TC700, the Tudor TL700 has 120 A more cranking power and EFB technology. If your current battery says 760 A or more, choose the TL700; if it says 640 A or less, the TC700 is enough. Both measure 278 × 175 × 190 mm, so they fit the same tray.

### Tudor TC700 or TB712: what changes?

Mainly the height: the TC700 is 190 mm tall (L3) and the Tudor TB712 175 mm (LB3), with the same length and width. In capacity and cranking power, the TB712 offers 71 Ah and 670 A against 70 Ah and 640 A. Before choosing between the TC700 and the TB712, measure the free height of the battery compartment with the cover or bonnet closed.

### Can the Tudor TC700 be used in a car with Start-Stop?

No. The TC700 is a lead-acid battery for cars without automatic engine stop; Start-Stop needs an EFB or an AGM; in this same size there is the Tudor TL700.

### How much does the Tudor TC700 weigh?

16 kg, with 70 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Tudor TL700 (70 Ah) weighs 19.3 kg.

### Which battery is equivalent to the Tudor TC700?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EC700, Varta E13 and Kronobat SD-70.0. As the TC700 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works. Its Bosch equivalent is the Bosch S3 008, the same as for the Varta E13. Bosch is not part of our catalogue; we list it so you can compare.

### What case size is the Tudor TC700?

Case size L3: 278 × 175 × 190 mm. The TC700 fits any standard L3 battery tray such as the Exide EC700.

### Which side is the positive terminal on the Tudor TC700?

On the TC700, the positive terminal is on the right with the terminals facing you: compare it with your current battery, because with reversed polarity the cables will not reach.
