Check before ordering

• ✓ Chemistry: lead-acid. Some vehicles and chargers are programmed for a specific type, so check before swapping.
• ✓ Tape measure time: 510 × 218 × 225 mm is the footprint and height of this case. Leave a little clearance for the clamp and the cable lugs.
• ✓ The capacity rating, 180Ah, should suit the consumers you run. Lots of electrical equipment calls for the higher end.
