Exide ES290 12V 25Ah 150A is a marine battery with reinforced anti-vibration case for moorings and offshore use. Tolerates the typical daily cycles on a boat (engine start + night-time services such as lights, sonar, fridge) and holds voltage even when the hull is rolling in open sea.

Why this marine battery?

  • Marine designbuilt for boat swell and vibration
  • Dual functionstarts the engine and powers onboard services
  • Sealed and safemaintenance-free even when the boat rolls

The Exide ES290 in practice

ES290 vs Exide ES450

The Exide ES290 offers 25 Ah and 150 A cold cranking in a 166 × 175 × 125 mm case. The Exide ES450, same brand and technology, goes up to 40 Ah and 280 A with 41 mm more length and costs €32.70 more. If the tray takes the size, extra capacity and cranking give winter margin; if not, this one is the fit.

The Exide ES290 marine battery offers 12 V, 25 Ah and 150 A of cold cranking current (EN) from the Marina GEL range with GEL technology, designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. Measuring 166 × 175 × 125 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for boats fitted from the factory with a 25 Ah battery of this format.

  • Sealed: no spills or gases in the locker.
  • Resistant to humidity and salt air.
  • GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.
  • Ready for starting outboard and inboard engines.

What the Exide ES290 is for

With 25 Ah, the Exide ES290 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 9.60 kg, M05 terminals and B0 hold-down.

The Exide ES290: Marina GEL range and GEL technology

The Marina GEL is the Exide range the ES290 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.

GEL technology fixes the acid in a solid gel. That removes maintenance and leaks and gives very long cycle life, in exchange for slightly slower recharging and lower peak current than an AGM.

Will it fit your current battery tray?

It has external dimensions of 166 × 175 × 125 mm and weighs 9.60 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 M05 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

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.

How to make it last longer

As a service battery, avoid routine discharges below 50% to extend its cycle life. GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte.

Warranty and coverage

The Exide ES290 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.

When you get it and how to return it

Orders placed before 6:00 pm with the battery in stock ship the same day. Delivery in mainland Spain and Portugal takes 24-48 working hours; for the Balearic Islands and the rest of the European Union allow 3 to 5 working days. You have 14 days to return an unused battery; in mainland Spain and Portugal collection is free. We email you the tracking number as soon as the parcel ships.

Frequently asked questions

Is the ES290 model a gel battery? Where is it used?

Yes, GEL technology (25 Ah): a sealed lead-acid battery whose electrolyte is in gel form. Deep discharges are its strong point, so it suits cyclic use: solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs or motorcycles. It needs a GEL-specific smart charger: its maximum charge voltage is lower than that of an AGM.

Is this a starting or a service (leisure) battery?

Service: it is designed to power electronics, lights, the fridge or the windlass for hours, withstanding deep discharges. 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 GEL, 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 size is this battery?

Measure the battery tray before ordering: a one-millimetre difference is enough for the hold-down clamp not to close. It measures 166×175×125 mm in length × width × height, with the terminals included in the height.

What polarity does the Exide ES290 battery have?

Polarity of the Exide ES290: positive on the right. If your current battery has its positive on the other side, this one is not suitable without longer cables or a reconfigured system (short-circuit risk). Seen from the front, terminals towards you, the positive (+) is the post with the red ring.
