What to look at before buying the TL550

  • Measure the space: the TL550 takes up 207 × 175 × 190 mm (European case size L1).
  • With the terminals facing you, the positive terminal of the TL550 is on the right.
  • Capacity of the TL550: 55 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
  • Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 540 A or less, the TL550 covers your engine.
  • The TL550 is an EFB: it suits cars that had an EFB or a conventional battery. If yours had an AGM, fit another AGM.

EFB technology in the TL550

Inside, the TL550 uses EFB technology, a reinforced version of the flooded battery. It is the choice for cars with basic Start-Stop.

TL550 or TL600: which one suits me?

Compared with the TL550, the Tudor TL600 has 5 Ah more and 100 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 640 A or more, choose the TL600; if it says 540 A or less, the TL550 is enough. Mind the space: the TL600 measures 242 × 175 × 190 mm.

Can the Tudor TL550 be used in a car with Start-Stop?

Yes, the TL550 is an EFB: it suits Start-Stop without brake energy recovery, or cars that already had an EFB. If your car left the factory with an AGM, fit another AGM.

How much does the Tudor TL550 weigh?

14.1 kg, with 55 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Tudor TL600 (60 Ah) weighs 17.5 kg.

Which battery is equivalent to the Tudor TL550?

In EFB or AGM, with its dimensions and polarity: Exide EL550 and Fulmen FL550. A conventional battery does not replace the TL550.

What case size is the Tudor TL550?

Case size L1: 207 × 175 × 190 mm. The TL550 fits any standard L1 battery tray such as the Exide EL550.

Which side is the positive terminal on the Tudor TL550?

On the TL550, 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.

Can I fit the Tudor TL550 if my car came with an AGM battery?

Only if the TL550 is AGM. A car that leaves the factory with AGM must always run AGM; an EFB in its place will not last and may trigger dashboard warnings.
