📊 Comparativa AGM vs EFB vs Convencional

Aquí tienes las diferencias clave entre las tres tecnologías de baterías de arranque. La AGM es la más avanzada y cara; la EFB es el punto medio para Start-Stop; la convencional (también llamada plomo-ácido inundada) es la opción clásica para coches sin Start-Stop.

 AGMEFBConvencional
Ciclos de cargaHasta 3× más que convencional (≈ 360 000 ciclos cortos)~2× más que convencional (≈ 270 000 ciclos cortos)Diseñada para arranque + alternador, no para ciclos repetidos

Frequently asked questions

The Foden S S104 may use different batteries depending on engine and equipment. We found 1 compatible batteries. Check dimensions and positive terminal position before purchasing.
Yes, you can install a higher capacity (Ah) battery as long as the physical dimensions fit your Foden S S104 battery compartment and the positive terminal position matches.
To change the battery: 1) Disconnect negative (−) first. 2) Disconnect positive (+). 3) Remove old battery. 4) Place new one respecting polarity. 5) Connect positive first, then negative. If unsure, consult a professional.
Use the search tool by selecting your vehicle's make and model. Our system automatically filters compatible part numbers verified by our technicians. If you have any questions, contact us via WhatsApp.
As they are consumable items, car batteries have a 2-year warranty, truck batteries a 1-year warranty, and all others (motorcycle batteries, cyclic batteries, etc.) a 6-month warranty. If a battery has a manufacturing defect, it will be replaced at no cost to the user.
Under normal circumstances, batteries usually arrive within 1 to 2 days of ordering. However, there are some cases where delivery may take a little longer: peak seasons (Black Friday, Christmas, etc.), palletized shipments, occasional stock shortages, etc.

Guías

Guide to safely replace the battery (or the pair of batteries in 24 V systems) of the Foden S S104. Estimated time: 30-60 minutes. Tools: 12-17 mm wrenches, gloves and safety glasses. Warning: truck batteries weigh 25-55 kg each. If the vehicle has a battery master switch (isolator), engage it before starting.

  1. Prepare the vehicle Park on flat, firm ground, apply the handbrake, place wheel chocks, and if the truck has a battery disconnect switch (master switch), engage it. Switch off all electrical loads.
  2. Locate the battery box The box is usually on the chassis side, behind the cab, or under it. Many trucks carry two batteries in series (24 V) or in parallel (higher capacity). Identify the configuration before touching anything.
  3. Open the box and inspect the connections Open the battery-box lid. Cables are much thicker than in a car; terminal bolts are usually 12-17 mm. Identify the ground cable (to chassis) and the bridge cable between batteries if there are two.
  4. Mark the layout before dismantling Take a photo or tag the cables with tape. In a series setup (24 V): battery 1 negative goes to chassis ground; battery 1 positive bridges to battery 2 negative; battery 2 positive feeds the system.
  5. Disconnect all grounds first Disconnect the ground cable (negative to chassis) and, if there are two batteries, the bridge cable between them. This order is critical: while any negative remains connected, an accidental positive-to-chassis contact causes a massive short circuit.
  6. Disconnect the positives With every ground isolated, disconnect the positive cables. Move them aside and cover them with a cloth or insulating tape so they cannot reconnect.
  7. Remove the old batteries Release the clamps, rods or retaining bars. Truck batteries weigh 25-55 kg each: wear gloves and goggles, ask for help or use a lifting device. Never lift them by the terminals.
  8. Install the new ones and reconnect in reverse order Clean the box with a brush or dry cloth and neutralise acid residue with diluted baking soda if there is sulphation. Fit the new batteries matching the original orientation. Connect positives first, then the bridge cables (if any), and the ground cables to chassis last. Apply petroleum jelly or anti-corrosion grease on the terminals.
  9. Re-enable and verify Close the box, re-engage the disconnect switch if present, and check the voltage with a multimeter (12.6-12.8 V at rest per battery, or 25.2-25.6 V total on 24 V systems). Start the truck and check tachograph, lights, HVAC and other systems. If the tachograph or ECM requires recalibration, go to an authorised service centre.

General reference guide: always consult your vehicle manufacturer's manual before following these steps, as procedures may vary or not be suitable depending on model, year and equipment. If in doubt, consult a professional. baterias.com accepts no liability for damage resulting from an incorrect procedure.

Knowing your battery polarity (positive on the right or on the left) is the most important step before buying a replacement: connecting it the wrong way can damage the electronics. Estimated time: 2 minutes. Tools: eyes only — no tools required.

  1. Locate the battery Open the bonnet of the Foden S S104 and find the battery. It is usually a rectangular block with two metal terminals (large screw heads) on top — one red or "+" and one black or "−".
  2. Identify the positive terminal The positive terminal (+) typically has a red cap, red sticker or cover, a raised "+" symbol on the casing, and/or a slightly larger diameter (19 mm vs 17 mm of the negative, in standard European batteries).
  3. Face the battery Look at the battery from the label side with the terminals near you — the edge with the terminals should face you, not the back.
  4. Determine polarity If the positive pole is on the RIGHT → polarity 0 (positive right). If it is on the LEFT → polarity 1 (positive left). On batteries with side terminals, the convention changes: polarity 4 (narrow-side right) and polarity 3 (narrow-side left).
  5. Note the reference The label on top shows the reference (e.g. "A9", "TK960", "EA900"). Search for the exact model with that reference and the identified polarity — never change polarity without consulting the vehicle manufacturer.
