The Deka 8GGC2 with GEL technology delivers 180 Ah at 6 V with the cycle life that power wheelchairs, mobility scooters and light electric vehicles demand. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in power wheelchairs and mobility scooters with a 260 × 180 × 276 mm format: same 180 Ah capacity.

  • Thousands of useful cycles over its lifetime.
  • Standard replacement format for wheelchairs and scooters.
  • GEL technology: gelled electrolyte, fully sealed and maintenance-free.
  • Designed to be discharged and recharged daily without losing capacity.

What the Deka 8GGC2 is for

The Deka 8GGC2 is the usual replacement in power wheelchairs, mobility scooters and light electric vehicles. Recharge after each use and avoid leaving it discharged for days. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 31.30 kg.

Dimensions, polarity and mounting

In terms of format, the Deka 8GGC2 measures 260 × 180 × 276 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 31.30 kg. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.

Deka: the maker behind the 8GGC2

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. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

Technology inside the Deka 8GGC2

Within the Deka catalogue, the 8GGC2 is the 180 Ah model designed for this application.

In a GEL battery the electrolyte is gelled with silica: it is fully sealed, cannot spill and tolerates deep discharge very well. It is the preferred technology in electric mobility, marine service and heavy-cycling applications.

Care and maintenance

Use the original charger or one compatible with the battery technology (AGM/GEL) and always replace both batteries in the set together. Recharge the wheelchair or scooter after each use and do not leave it discharged for days: lead sulphates and loses capacity.

Official warranty

The Deka 8GGC2 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.

Shipping, delivery and returns

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed before 6:00 pm: 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 14 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 8GGC2 a GEL battery? What is GEL used for?

Yes, this model is a GEL battery: sealed lead-acid where the electrolyte is in gel form. It tolerates deep discharges very well and is ideal for cyclic use (solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs, motorcycles). Requires a GEL-specific smart charger — max charge voltage ~14.1 V (vs 14.4-14.7 V for AGM). Lifespan 6-10 years.

How is the Deka 8GGC2 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.

How long does the Deka 8GGC2 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Deka 8GGC2 is 6 to 10 years in cyclic use (marine, caravan, solar) with controlled discharges. 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 measurements of the 8GGC2 model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 260×180×276 mm — also written as 260x180x276 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.

Which batteries are equivalent to the Deka 8GGC2?

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.
