Quick answer: For trucks and farm machinery there is the Varta H16, carrying a 105Ah 12V 800A rating. Compare the code on your old battery with H16 before ordering.
Fitting and everyday care
Harvest week, the combine has stood since last year and the starter barely turns. Use the battery isolator when a vehicle will be parked for more than a few days. Lights dimming during cranking point to a weak battery.

How lead-acid batteries work and how to look after them
Lead-acid batteries are almost entirely recyclable. Flooded traction batteries last years with regular watering. Avoid deep discharges to prevent sulphation.
Common questions about the Varta H16
Is lead-acid the same as the battery I have now?
Being a lead-acid battery, it needs charging voltages suited to that chemistry. Smart chargers with a selectable mode take care of this automatically.
Which product line does the Varta H16 belong to?
It belongs to the VARTA ProMotive SLI line from Varta. Other models in the same line share the construction and differ mainly in size and capacity.
Where can I find the barcode number?
Yes, 4016987166529. Use it to cross-check with your records or a workshop order.
How can I be sure the Varta H16 is compatible?
Hold your old label up to H16. Same code plus same size and terminal side means a direct swap.
About the Varta H16
Agricultural contractors often reorder the Varta H16 before the busy season. Figures of 105Ah 12V 800A put it in the class heavy diesels expect. Plenty of farm workshops now buy batteries online rather than drive to town.
105Ah suits engines with modest electrical demands. Cold starts are well covered: 800A is above the norm for its class.

Make sure it fits your vehicle or equipment
- ✓ Built with lead-acid technology: if your vehicle or system was set up for another chemistry, check the charging settings first.
- ✓ Measure the space available: the case takes up 330 × 172 × 238 mm, and a few millimetres too many can stop the hold-down from closing.
- ✓ Rated 105Ah: check that the charger or alternator in your system can refill a battery of that capacity in reasonable time.
