Varta B39 vs C20: differences
How the B39 compares with Varta batteries of similar size and capacity:
| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Positive | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varta B39 (this one) | 45 Ah | 300 A | 210 × 175 × 175 | right | 10.76 kg |

Inside the B39: lead-acid technology
Inside, the B39 is classic lead-acid: liquid electrolyte and lead plates. If the B39 is left discharged for weeks it sulphates: a maintenance charger prevents this.
Check this before ordering the Varta B39
- Measure the space: the B39 takes up 210 × 175 × 175 mm (European case size LB1).

- Capacity of the B39: 45 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- The B39 delivers 300 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.

Frequently asked questions about the Varta B39
Varta B39 or C20?
Compared with the B39, the Varta C20 has 10 Ah more and 120 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 420 A or more, choose the C20; if it says 300 A or less, the B39 is enough. Mind the space: the C20 measures 242 × 175 × 190 mm.
What does the code 545 200 030 on the Varta B39 mean?
It is its ETN (European Type Number), also written 545200030. The first three digits (545) encode voltage and capacity: 12 V and 45 Ah (5xx = under 100 Ah, 6xx = 100 to 199 Ah, 7xx = 200 Ah or more). The middle group (200) identifies the specific model within that capacity, and the last three digits (030) multiplied by 10 give the cold cranking current: 300 A.
How much does the Varta B39 weigh?
The B39 weighs 10.76 kg. For reference, the Varta C20 (55 Ah) weighs 13.44 kg.
What case size is the Varta B39?
Case size LB1: 210 × 175 × 175 mm (Varta lists it as T4). The B39 fits any standard LB1 battery tray.
Which side is the positive terminal on the Varta B39?
The B39 has the positive terminal on the right, looking at the battery from its long side with the terminals closest to you.
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.
