Using it day to day: practical tips
Salt air on a mooring corrodes battery terminals faster than anywhere inland. Keep a battery monitor reset after fitting new batteries. After several seasons of heavy cycling, most leisure batteries show a clear drop in range.
AGM: how it works
AGM stands for absorbent glass mat, a fancy name for a very tidy way of storing acid. Alarm panels and UPS units are classic homes for small AGM blocks. Charge an AGM battery in a cool, ventilated place.
Will the Exide EP500 fit?
- ✓ Capacity 60Ah: equal to or a little above your old label is ideal.
- ✓ For winter starts, 680A should at least match the old battery.
- ✓ Check that the alternator or controller suits AGM.
