Marine battery Exide EP500 Marina Dual EP 60Ah 680A 12V
The Exide EP500 with AGM technology is a marine battery with 60 Ah and 680 A of cold cranking current (EN) for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. Its 242 × 175 × 190 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 60 Ah battery fitted as standard to many boats.
- Resistant to humidity and salt air.
- Sealed: no spills or gases in the locker.
- Ready for starting outboard and inboard engines.
- AGM: faster recharging and better cycle resistance than a conventional battery.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
It has external dimensions of 242 × 175 × 190 mm and weighs 17.80 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 the Exide EP500 is for
With 60 Ah, the Exide EP500 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 17.80 kg, 1 terminals and B13 hold-down.
The Exide EP500: Marina Dual EP range and AGM technology
The EP500 is part of the Exide Marina Dual EP range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
AGM means the acid is held in a glass mat instead of floating free. That is why the battery can be installed in the cabin without gases, survives more cycles and recovers its charge quickly.
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. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Exide EP500 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.
How to make it last longer
Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators. At the end of the season, charge the battery fully and, if possible, keep it on a charger over the winter lay-up.
When you get it and how to return it
Order before 6:00 pm with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have 14 days to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

Frequently asked questions
Is the EP500 model AGM? What does this technology offer?
Yes. The Exide EP500 is AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat): sealed lead-acid, with the electrolyte absorbed in glass fibre. Compared with a conventional battery it withstands more charge/discharge cycles and handles heat better.
Is this a starting or a service (leisure) battery?
Dual purpose: it can start the engine and also work as a service battery, handy on boats with a single battery. 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 dimensions of the Exide EP500 battery?
Its dimensions are 242×175×190 mm, also written 242x175x190 mm; the height already includes the terminals. In European terms it is a L2 case. Check the room available in your boat, because a single millimetre too much can stop the clamp from closing.
Which side is the positive terminal on this battery?
It has the positive on the right (polarity). Put it in front of you, terminals towards you: the post with the red ring and the + sign is the positive. Compare it with the battery you are replacing: if it does not match, cables must be lengthened or the system reconfigured, with a risk of short circuit.
Exide EP500 or Varta LA60: which one to choose?
The Varta alternative that fits where the EP500 goes, with the same polarity. Compared with the EP500 it has the same Ah and cranking power. It costs 48,00 € more. A straight swap with nothing to adapt; the difference is the price and the brand you prefer.
