6*V* Voltage
260*Ah* Capacity
1,300*A* Cold cranking
39.10*kg* Weight

With **260 Ah** at **6 V** and **1,300 A** of cold cranking current (EN), the **Exide EU260-6** from the **Marina Vintage** range is built for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in boats with a 345 × 172 × 286 mm format: same 260 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the right.
- Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
- Reinforced case against vibration and swell.
- Powers onboard services: lights, sounder, GPS, fridge.
- Tolerates the daily cycling of a boat in season.

### What the Exide EU260-6 is for

With 260 Ah, the Exide EU260-6 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 39.10 kg, 1 terminals and B0 hold-down.

### Size, terminals and hold-down of the Exide EU260-6

It has external dimensions of 345 × 172 × 286 mm and weighs 39.10 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 1 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.

### The Exide EU260-6: Marina Vintage range and conventional lead-acid technology

The **Marina Vintage** is the Exide range the EU260-6 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.
In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.

### Exide: the maker behind the EU260-6

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

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Exide EU260-6 comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty** against manufacturing defects. Deep discharge from winter lay-up without charging is not covered.

### Care and maintenance

As a service battery, avoid routine discharges below 50% to extend its cycle life. At the end of the season, charge the battery fully and, if possible, keep it on a charger over the winter lay-up.

### Delivery times and returns

Order **before [[ks:cutoff]]** 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 **[[ks:return_days]] days** to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I fit the EU260-6 model in my boat?

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 this page. 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 — 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 EU260-6 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Exide EU260-6 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 dimensions of the Exide EU260-6 battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 345×172×286 mm — also written as 345x172x286 mm — 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.

### Will the Exide EU260-6 battery fit my boat?

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 EU260-6 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Exide EU260-6?

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.
