Frequently asked questions about the Varta 12N7-4A
12N7-4A or YB7-A: which one suits me?
Compared with the 12N7-4A, the Varta YB7-A has 1 Ah more and 36 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 110 A or more, choose the YB7-A; if it says 74 A or less, the 12N7-4A is enough. Both measure 136 × 75 × 133 mm, so they fit the same tray.
Varta 12N7-4A or YB7L-B: what is the difference?
Only the polarity: the 12N7-4A has the positive terminal on the left and the YB7L-B the positive terminal on the right. Capacity (7 Ah), cranking power and dimensions are identical. That is why their ETNs only differ in the middle group: 507 013 007 for the 12N7-4A and 507 012 007 for the YB7L-B.
Is the Varta 507013007 the same battery as the Varta 12N7-4A?
Yes. 507013007 is the ETN code Varta uses for its 12N7-4A battery, so you can search for it by either code.
How much does the Varta 12N7-4A weigh?
2.85 kg, with 7 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Varta YB7-A (8 Ah) weighs 3.04 kg.
Which battery is equivalent to the Varta 12N7-4A?
With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EB7-A. As the 12N7-4A is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.
Does the Varta 12N7-4A come charged and ready to fit?
Sealed AGM and gel batteries leave the factory charged and ready. Conventional ones with a separate acid pack are activated when filled and should be charged before fitting.
Inside the 12N7-4A: lead-acid technology
The 12N7-4A is a conventional lead-acid battery, with plates immersed in liquid electrolyte. Avoid leaving them discharged, as they sulphate, and charge them with a charger that cuts off or switches to maintenance when finished.
