53.40*kg* Weight

The **Fullriver DCG160-12 marine battery** offers **12 V**, **160 Ah** from the **DCG** range with AGM technology, designed for motor and sailing boats, both for engine starting and onboard services. It measures 527 × 224 × 234 mm, the format sought by anyone replacing a 160 Ah battery in boats.
- Reinforced case against vibration and swell.
- AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle.
- Tolerates the daily cycling of a boat in season.
- Powers onboard services: lights, sounder, GPS, fridge.

### What the Fullriver DCG160-12 is for

On board, the Fullriver DCG160-12 provides 160 Ah with a case reinforced against vibration and swell. Keep the terminals clean and protected from salt humidity. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 53.40 kg and M8 terminals.

### Will it fit your current battery tray?

It has external dimensions of 527 × 224 × 234 mm and weighs 53.40 kg. It uses M8 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.

### The Fullriver DCG160-12: DCG range and AGM technology

The DCG160-12 is part of the Fullriver **DCG** range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
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.

### Why choose Fullriver batteries

Fullriver specialises in deep-cycle AGM batteries for mobility, marine, solar and traction. Its DC and HC series are known for their tolerance to deep discharge and long cycle life. We guarantee that every Fullriver arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.

### Official warranty

The Fullriver DCG160-12 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

Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators. As a service battery, avoid routine discharges below 50% to extend its cycle life.

### Delivery times and returns

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before [[ks:cutoff]]**: 24-48 working hours in mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 to 5 days in the islands and the rest of Europe. Returns are accepted for **[[ks:return_days]] days** if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Fullriver DCG160-12 an AGM battery and what are the benefits of AGM?

Yes. The DCG160-12 from Fullriver uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for boats with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.

### How do I change this battery step by step?

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 Fullriver DCG160-12 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Fullriver DCG160-12 is 5 to 8 years in mild-climate boat use with 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 Fullriver DCG160-12 battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 527×224×239 mm — also written as 527x224x239 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 Fullriver DCG160-12 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 DCG160-12 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.

### What are the equivalents of the DCG160-12 model?

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.
