Withstands constant chassis vibration, supports long cold-engine cranks and keeps auxiliary services running (tachograph, heater, refrigeration, GPS) during driver's mandatory rest stops. ## Why this truck battery? - **True Heavy Duty** built for intensive professional use - **Long cold-diesel cranks** reliable even in extreme cold - **Powers services at idle** tachograph, heater and lights with engine off πŸ”Œ Voltage 12 V ⚑ Capacity 145 Ah C20 πŸ”‹ Cold cranking 1000 A EN-1 πŸ“ Dimensions 360Γ—253Γ—240 mm βš™οΈ Technology Lead-acid βš–οΈ Weight 38,1 kg 🏷️ Model DETA StartPRO ## Description ## Truck battery Deta DG145A StartPRO 145Ah 1,000A 12V 12*V* Voltage 145*Ah* Capacity 1,000*A* Cold cranking 38.10*kg* Weight The **Deta DG145A** with conventional lead-acid technology delivers **145 Ah** at **12 V** and **1,000 A** of cold cranking current (EN): what trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery demand. Measuring 360 Γ— 253 Γ— 240 mm, it is the direct replacement for trucks fitted from the factory with a 145 Ah battery of this format. - Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price. - Resistant to constant chassis vibration. - Powers tachograph, fridge and heater during rest stops. - Better tolerance to deep discharge than a conventional starter battery. ### What the Deta DG145A is for Designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery, the Deta DG145A withstands constant chassis vibration and discharges during stops with active loads. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 38.10 kg and B00 hold-down. ### The Deta DG145A: StartPRO range and conventional lead-acid technology The **StartPRO** is the Deta range the DG145A belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle. Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour. ### Dimensions, polarity and mounting In terms of format, the Deta DG145A measures 360 Γ— 253 Γ— 240 mm (length Γ— width Γ— height) and weighs 38.10 kg. It uses a B00 hold-down, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery. ### Why choose Deta batteries Deta is the German brand of the Exide group: batteries built with original-equipment technology and a very complete range for cars, Start-Stop, trucks, motorcycles and leisure. We guarantee that every Deta arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty. ### Care and maintenance On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. Keep the terminals clean and tight and the battery firmly secured against chassis vibration. ### Manufacturer's warranty The Deta DG145A comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty** against manufacturing defects. An important note for commercial vehicles: most trucks use **two batteries connected in series** (24 V installation). If you replace only one, the new battery works alongside the old one, which has already lost capacity; that imbalance shortens its life and the manufacturer may treat it as misuse. Always replace **both at the same time**. ### 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 ### How is the Deta DG145A battery installed in the vehicle? In most trucks 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 (βˆ’) 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 β€” match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (βˆ’). On trucks with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile. ### How long does the Deta DG145A battery last? Expected lifespan of the Deta DG145A is 4 to 6 years in regular truck use without 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 Deta DG145A battery? Dimensions (length Γ— width Γ— height) are 360Γ—253Γ—240 mm β€” also written as 360x253x240 mm β€” following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your truck before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals. ### Does this battery fit my truck? Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year β€” we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The DG145A typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format. ### Which batteries are equivalent to the Deta DG145A? 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 β€” an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop trucks. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level. ## Equivalent batteries - [TUDOR TG145A](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-tudor-tg145a-145ah-1000a) - [EXIDE EG145A](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-exide-eg145a-12v-145ah-1000a) ## Technical team (editorial authorship) The FAQs, guides and comparisons on this site are reviewed by the baterias.com technical team β€” automotive battery specialists since 2012. β†’ https://baterias.com/gb/technical-team --- *baterias.com β€” Automotive batteries Β· 2026-10-27*
