In short: the Exide EC905 (90 Ah, 680 A, 306 × 173 × 222 mm, positive terminal on the left). Verified equivalent alternatives: Tudor TC905 and Tudor TA955.

• Behaves well after long periods without use.
• Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
• Low self-discharge for cars that rarely leave the garage.
• Safe starting for carburettor engines and classic ignition.

What the Exide EC905 is for

The Exide EC905 is designed for classic and vintage cars with their original electrical system: a format compatible with period trays and a stable voltage for original ignition and wiring. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 19.90 kg.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EC905

It has external dimensions of 306 × 173 × 222 mm and weighs 19.90 kg. The positive terminal on the left decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.

The Exide EC905: Classic range and conventional lead-acid technology

The EC905 is part of the Exide Classic range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.

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.

Usage and maintenance tips

On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. Check the resting voltage and terminals periodically; corrosion in old wiring is the most frequent cause of weak starts.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Exide EC905 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. The warranty does not cover deep discharge through inactivity: in a classic, a trickle charger is the best protection.
