Exide EF1853 · Truck battery 12V 185Ah 1150A

Truck battery Exide EF1853 Power PRO 185Ah 1,150A 12V

With 185 Ah and 1,150 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Exide EF1853 from the Power PRO range is built for professional use in trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. It measures 513 × 223 × 223 mm and the positive terminal on the left, the format sought by anyone replacing a 185 Ah battery in trucks.

• Designed for 24 V installations with two batteries in series.
• Powerful cold cranking for large-displacement diesel engines.
• Heavy Duty construction for intensive professional use.
• Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.

What the Exide EF1853 is for

With 185 Ah, the Exide EF1853 cranks large-displacement diesel engines in the cold and powers tachograph, fridge and heater during rest stops. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 43.90 kg, 1 terminals and B0 hold-down.

Dimensions, polarity and mounting

The Exide EF1853 is made in the 513 × 223 × 223 mm format and weighs 43.90 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. It uses a B0 hold-down and 1 terminals, 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.

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. We guarantee that every Exide arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.

The Exide EF1853: Power PRO range and conventional lead-acid technology

The Power PRO is the Exide range the EF1853 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.

How to make it last longer

During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery. In 24 V installations, check periodically that both batteries show the same voltage; an imbalance means one is failing.

Official warranty

The Exide EF1853 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.
