Exide EM960 12V 100Ah 800A is a starting battery for boats and motorhomes, with a case reinforced against the vibration of mooring and cruising. All its energy is designed to crank the engine reliably, not to run long loads: for that, fit a separate service bank.
Why this marine starting battery?
- Marine designbuilt for boat swell and vibration
- Starting in demanding conditionsmaximum cranking power
- Sealed and safemaintenance-free even when the boat rolls
Where it fits: the Exide EM960 is one of our boat batteries, belongs to our Exide batteries and by capacity it sits among our 100Ah batteries.

Marine battery Exide EM960 Marina Start AGM 100Ah 800A 12V
The Exide EM960 with AGM technology is a marine battery with 100 Ah and 800 A of cold cranking current (EN) for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in boats with a 330 × 173 × 240 mm format: same 100 Ah capacity.
- Powers onboard services: lights, sounder, GPS, fridge.
- Tolerates the daily cycling of a boat in season.
- AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle.
- Reinforced case against vibration and swell.
What the Exide EM960 is for
The Exide EM960 is designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. If it is your starter battery, run the services from a separate battery; if it is a service battery, avoid routinely discharging it beyond 50%. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 31.20 kg.
Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EM960
The Exide EM960 is made in the 330 × 173 × 240 mm format and weighs 31.20 kg. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Exide EM960: Marina Start AGM range and AGM technology
Within the Exide catalogue, the Marina Start AGM series groups the references designed for this use. The EM960 is the 100 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
In an AGM battery the electrolyte is absorbed in glass-fibre separators: there is no free liquid, it cannot spill and it can be mounted at an angle. That construction lowers internal resistance, speeds up recharging and multiplies cycle life compared with a conventional battery.
Exide: the maker behind the EM960
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. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide EM960 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.
Usage and maintenance tips
At the end of the season, charge the battery fully and, if possible, keep it on a charger over the winter lay-up. Protect the terminals with dielectric grease and check the fixing: vibration and swell loosen connections.

Frequently asked questions
Is this battery AGM? What is it for?
Yes. The Exide EM960 is AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat): sealed lead-acid, with the electrolyte absorbed in glass fibre. Its advantages: more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional battery and better heat tolerance.
Is this a starting or a service (leisure) battery?
Starting: it delivers a high current for a few seconds to crank the engine. On boats with two circuits the ideal is one starting battery and one service battery.
In what position can it be installed on the boat?
Being AGM, it is sealed and does not spill: it can be mounted tilted (never upside down) and copes well with vibration and wave impacts. Secure it firmly and keep the terminals away from water.
What are the measurements of the EM960 model?
Measure the battery tray before ordering: a one-millimetre difference is enough for the hold-down clamp not to close. It measures 330×173×240 mm in length × width × height, with the terminals included in the height.
Exide EM960 or Exide EP900: which one to choose?
Same range and the same performance as the EM960. Compared with the EM960 it has the same Ah and cranking power. It costs 43,75 € less. Either one works; decide by price.
