Exide EF1420 · Truck battery 12V 142Ah 850A

Truck battery Exide EF1420 Power PRO 142Ah 850A 12V

The Exide EF1420 with conventional lead-acid technology delivers 142 Ah at 12 V and 850 A of cold cranking current (EN): what trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery demand. Measuring 349 × 175 × 290 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for trucks fitted from the factory with a 142 Ah battery of this format.

• Powers tachograph, fridge and heater during rest stops.
• Better tolerance to deep discharge than a conventional starter battery.
• Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
• Resistant to constant chassis vibration.

What the Exide EF1420 is for

The Exide EF1420 is designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. In 24 V installations with two batteries in series, replace both at the same time to avoid imbalance. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 35.10 kg, 1 terminals and B0 hold-down.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EF1420

It has external dimensions of 349 × 175 × 290 mm and weighs 35.10 kg. The positive terminal on the right decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses a B0 hold-down and 1 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. 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.

The Exide EF1420: Power PRO range and conventional lead-acid technology

The Power PRO is the Exide range the EF1420 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.

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.

What Exide does differently

Exide is one of the world's largest battery manufacturers and an original-equipment supplier to many car makers. Its European plants produce starter, industrial and leisure batteries under original-equipment quality controls. All the Exide batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

Warranty and coverage

The Exide EF1420 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.

Care and maintenance

On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery.

When you get it and how to return it

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.
