## Varta LA80 vs LA70 and LA95: which one to choose?

What sets the LA80 apart from its neighbours in the Varta range:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Positive | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varta LA80 (this one) | 80 Ah | 800 A | 315 × 175 × 190 | right | 22.56 kg |
| Varta LA70 | 70 Ah | 760 A | 278 × 175 × 190 | right | 20.3 kg |
| Varta LA95 | 95 Ah | 850 A | 353 × 175 × 190 | right | 25.73 kg |

- Varta LA70: 10 Ah less, 40 A less cranking power, a different case (278 × 175 × 190 mm).
- Varta LA95: 15 Ah more, 50 A more cranking power, a different case (353 × 175 × 190 mm).

## What it means that the LA80 is AGM

The LA80 is AGM: the electrolyte is absorbed in glass fibre mats, so it is sealed and spill-proof. It withstands many more cycles than a conventional lead battery, at the cost of being more sensitive to overcharging.

## What to look at before buying the LA80

- The LA80 needs 315 × 175 × 190 mm of space (European case size L4): measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.
- The LA80 has the positive terminal on the right: compare it with your current battery.
- Your current battery should say about 80 Ah; a little more is also fine.
- Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 800 A or less, the LA80 covers your engine.
