  • Measure the space: the TG1803 takes up 513 × 223 × 223 mm.
  • With 180 Ah, the TG1803 replaces an original battery of that capacity or slightly less.

How much does the Tudor TG1803 weigh?

Which battery is equivalent to the Tudor TG1803?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EG1803, Varta M18 and Kronobat SHD-180.3. As the TG1803 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

Are truck batteries fitted in pairs?

Almost always, in series for 24 V. Replace them in matched pairs: mixing a new one with an old one unbalances charging and shortens the new one's life.
