- Standard replacement format for wheelchairs and scooters.
- Thousands of useful cycles over its lifetime.
- Designed to be discharged and recharged daily without losing capacity.
- AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle.

### What the Deka 8AU1H is for

The Deka 8AU1H is designed for power wheelchairs, mobility scooters and light electric vehicles. Wheelchairs and scooters normally use two identical batteries in series: replace them together. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 10.43 kg.

### Size, terminals and hold-down of the Deka 8AU1H

It has external dimensions of 213 × 131 × 183 mm and weighs 10.43 kg. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.

### Technology inside the Deka 8AU1H

Within the Deka catalogue, the 8AU1H is the 32 Ah model designed for this application.
AGM means the acid is held in a glass mat instead of floating free. That is why the battery can be installed in the cabin without gases, survives more cycles and recovers its charge quickly.

### Deka: the maker behind the 8AU1H

Deka (East Penn Manufacturing) is the largest single-site lead battery manufacturer in the United States, with full control of the process from lead recycling to the finished battery. All the Deka batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### Official warranty

The Deka 8AU1H comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty** against manufacturing defects. If it fails through a defect within the warranty period, we replace it at no cost to you.

### Care and maintenance

Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators. Use the original charger or one compatible with the battery technology (AGM/GEL) and always replace both batteries in the set together.

### Delivery times and returns

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before [[ks:cutoff]]**: 24-48 working hours in mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 to 5 days in the islands and the rest of Europe. Returns are accepted for **[[ks:return_days]] days** if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Deka 8AU1H an AGM battery and what are the benefits of AGM?

Yes. The 8AU1H from Deka uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for devices with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.

### How is the Deka 8AU1H battery installed in the vehicle?

In most devices it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On devices with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### What is the service life of the 8AU1H model?

Expected lifespan of the Deka 8AU1H is 5 to 8 years in mild-climate device use with Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.

### What are the dimensions of the Deka 8AU1H battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 214×132×183 mm — also written as 214x132x183 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your device before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.

### What are the equivalents of the 8AU1H model?

Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop devices. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
