Deta DE1403 for trucks and farm machinery
Spotted Deta DE1403 stamped on a heavy battery in the yard? That code brings you here. A cold-start rating of 800A gives a frozen tractor on a February morning a real chance. Ordering batteries online saves a trip to the factor when a tractor is stuck in the yard.
140Ah is a typical capacity for trucks and farm machinery.

Getting the best from the Deta DE1403
A digger shaking along a rutted haul road gives its battery a hard life. Recharge a battery that has stood unused for a month before relying on it. Choosing on looks rather than terminal type can leave the heavy cables unable to connect.
How EFB batteries work and how to look after them
EFB means enhanced flooded battery: liquid acid like a classic battery, but with tougher plates. EFB is often the more affordable step up from a standard battery for a stop-start car. A long motorway run every few weeks does an EFB a lot of good.
Will the Deta DE1403 fit?
- ✓ Capacity is 140Ah. Aim for the same figure as your old battery or slightly above, never much lower.
- ✓ Check the EN figure on your old label against 800A.
- ✓ Set your charger to EFB before the first charge.
