Exide EN500 12V 50Ah 450A 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

Marine battery Exide EN500 Marina Start 50Ah 450A 12V
The Exide EN500 marine battery offers 12 V, 50 Ah and 450 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the Marina Start range with conventional lead-acid technology, designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. It measures 207 × 175 × 190 mm and the positive terminal on the right, the format sought by anyone replacing a 50 Ah battery in boats.
- Reinforced case against vibration and swell.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
- Tolerates the daily cycling of a boat in season.
- Powers onboard services: lights, sounder, GPS, fridge.
What the Exide EN500 is for
With 50 Ah, the Exide EN500 covers motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. At the end of the season, charge it fully before winter storage. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 12.20 kg, 1 terminals and B13 hold-down.
The Exide EN500: Marina Start range and conventional lead-acid technology
The EN500 is part of the Exide Marina Start range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
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.
Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EN500
The Exide EN500 is made in the 207 × 175 × 190 mm format and weighs 12.20 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 B13 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.
What Exide does differently
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.
Care and maintenance
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.
Warranty and coverage
The Exide EN500 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.

Frequently asked questions
How is the Exide EN500 battery installed in the vehicle?
In most boats it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — with positive on the right match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On boats with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
How long does the Exide EN500 battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Exide EN500 is 4 to 6 years in regular boat use without Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.
What are the measurements of the EN500 model?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 207×175×190 mm — also written as 207x175x190 mm and correspond to the European L1 case size — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your boat before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
What polarity does the Exide EN500 battery have?
Polarity: positive on the right. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
Is the EN500 valid for my vehicle?
Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The EN500 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Exide EN500?
Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop boats. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
