It’s often said that a 50Ah battery can deliver 5 amp for 10 hours or 50 amps for 1 hour. This is very simplistic and is not how it works. Flat – Flat lid feature with no raised plugs which could interfere with manufacturers top clamp frame. Car batteries vary in size, durability, capacity, and price. The 75 Ah is the most sought-after car battery brand. Please note that the prices of these batteries are not dependent on the year of production. Let us take a look at the prices of the most common brands of 75 Ah car batteries on the market today. Global Brand Your car uses the battery for 2 main purposes (1) the Engine (2) the Electrics such as lights, wipers, satellite navigation, stereo and so on. The average car battery will have an Ah rating somewhere around 50Ah. The 50Ah means that it can push 12 volts out at a rate of 50 amperes in an hour.

The EN test also is performed at -18°C. The EN requirement is however split into two levels: EN1 and EN2. Auto batteries range from 40Ah to 75Ah for larger engines and deliver hundreds of amps in a short time, usually in under 30 seconds. Again, as with SAE, the DIN test is carried out at -18°C. The fully charged battery is discharged to 6V with the rated test current. The voltage must be at least 9.0V after 30 seconds and the time to achieve 6V must be at least 150 seconds. The unique code number gives details of endurance level, cold cranking performance level, vibration level, lid, terminal and clamping partsWe are unable to ship to the following post codes on any service but may be able to obtain a quote: Standing Power: Batteries vary in diverse capacities. This measures the amount of time that it is in position to continuously supply the minimum voltage required to keep the car going before the alternator or the fan belt fails. You should always consider the reserve capacity. The higher the standing power, the better the battery. Some batteries have reserve capacities of up to 90 minutes which is good enough. Information about whether the battery is fitted with end-venting at the negative end can be found in the ‘technical specification’ tab.

Swelling Battery Case: When your battery case starts bumping This is usually a result of too much heat, and it radically shortens the life of the battery. Standard chargers have traditional styling, simple interfaces and limited additional features. While they can be Battery Leakage: When you constantly notice corrosion around the area where the positive and negative cable connections are situated, there is a battery leak, and there might be a need to change the battery. All chargers send electricity to your car's battery, but there are three main functions that they can perform. Inevitably there might be marginal differences in CCA and Ah between what was originally fitted and the battery in our range. The very small differences involved will not have a detrimental effect to the electrical system within the vehicle.Auto batteries are great for supplying high current in a short time but aren’t suitable for delivering sustained amps over time. Age of the Battery: Car owners should be familiar with this one. Most battery numbers start with two characters. The first is a letter and the other a digit. The letter usually indicates the month the car was manufactured. A stands for January, B for February, C for March, etc. The second character (the digit) stands for the year it was manufactured; 1 stands for 2001, 0 represents 2000, 2 for 2002, etc. Information about whether the battery is fitted with carrying handles can also be found in the ‘technical specification’ tab. End-Venting Alpha Batteries bears no responsibility for whatsoever for loss occurred due to late or failed deliveries. A lead-acid deep-cycle battery can be discharged up to 80% of it’s rated capacity, but 50% is often recommended, as this increases the overall life.

A typical lowest size for leisure batteries is 100Ah and they can deliver medium current for hours on end without damage. Use our ‘find the right battery for your car’ tool to find the correct size of battery. You can do this by entering your number plate, or manually entering the details of your car. VARTA was founded in 1887 Germany, and was established fully in 1904 by delivering the first electric vehicle battery, famously driven by Thomas Edison. Soon after, VARTA delivers the first ever vehicle battery to provide safe night time driving with electric vehicle headlights! Today’s VARTA batteries have been providing renowned German advanced technology, powerful performance and exceptional service around the world for well over 100 years. Deep-cycle batteries don’t have CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) because they are not designed to deliver high currents for any length of time. Whatever you need us for, our aim is to provide our customers with the best value for money. Join the
