## Description

On this page you find our selection of **BARCO** for marine use: starter, service (cabin auxiliary) and dual purpose batteries in flooded lead-acid, AGM, GEL and lithium. Marine batteries operate in conditions a car never sees: humidity, constant vibration, deep cycles at anchor and long discharges powering auxiliary loads (radio, GPS, fridge, windlass).
The fastest way: enter your [number plate](/gb/battery-finder-by-plate) or filter by specs in the [comparator](/gb/comparator).

## How to choose the right marine battery

Marine batteries fall into three clearly different families: **starter** (short high-current burst to crank the engine), **service / deep cycle** (slow discharge over hours powering on-board electronics) and **dual purpose** (acceptable compromise for small boats with a single bank). NEVER use a starter battery for service duty: it sulphates within weeks. AGM is preferable to flooded lead-acid in any vessel — maintenance-free, no off-gassing, spill-proof and vibration-resistant. LiFePO4 lithium delivers 4x the cycles of AGM and 100% usable capacity (vs 50% for lead-acid in deep cycle) at roughly triple the upfront cost.

### Typical capacities by marine use
