Dimensions, polarity and mounting

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.

Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.

The Exide ED1803: Endurance+PRO range and conventional lead-acid technology

Within the Exide catalogue, the Endurance+PRO series groups the references designed for this use. The ED1803 is the 180 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.

The conventional lead-acid battery remains the most widespread technology thanks to its balance of capacity, cranking current and price. Well maintained and kept charged, it offers years of reliable service in vehicles without Start-Stop.

Exide: the maker behind the ED1803

With more than a century of history, Exide Technologies manufactures automotive, marine, motorcycle and industrial batteries in Europe. Its presence as original equipment on assembly lines vouches for the quality of every reference. All the Exide batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

Official warranty

The Exide ED1803 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.

How to make it last longer

Keep the terminals clean and tight and the battery firmly secured against chassis vibration. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
