About the Exide AGM12-5
From commuter scooters to trail bikes, plenty of machines run on a Exide AGM12-5. Built with AGM technology, it suits riders who want a battery to match their charging setup. Picking by exact code avoids a seat that will not close.
4Ah keeps the battery small, handy for tight trays. 70A of cold cranking current is strong for a battery of this size.
Questions and answers
Do size and polarity both match my current battery?
Size is 115 × 70 × 105 mm and polarity positive on the right-hand side. Both must match your current battery.
Can a battery be stored before use?
Yes, but all batteries self-discharge slowly. Check the voltage every few months and recharge if needed.
How large and heavy is this battery?
At 115 × 70 × 105 mm and 1.8 kg, it needs a tray of that size and a careful lift.
Will the Exide AGM12-5 fit?
- ✓ Stored energy reserve: 4Ah. Going much lower than your current battery can leave you short on cold mornings or long stops.
- ✓ Diesels and big engines need the full 70A or more.
- ✓ Terminals: M04. Match them with your cable ends.

How AGM batteries work and how to look after them
Oxygen formed at one plate travels through the mat and recombines at the other. Glass-mat batteries recover well after a deep discharge compared with flooded ones. Replace an AGM battery whose case has bulged.
