It replaces the original battery without adaptation in power wheelchairs and mobility scooters with a 260 × 180 × 276 mm format: same 180 Ah capacity. - Thousands of useful cycles over its lifetime. - Standard replacement format for wheelchairs and scooters. - GEL technology: gelled electrolyte, fully sealed and maintenance-free. - Designed to be discharged and recharged daily without losing capacity. ### What the MK Powered 8GGC2 is for With 180 Ah, the MK Powered 8GGC2 offers the daily range that power wheelchairs, mobility scooters and light electric vehicles need, with a sealed construction that is safe indoors. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 31.30 kg and DT terminals. ### Will it fit your current battery tray? The MK Powered 8GGC2 is made in the 260 × 180 × 276 mm format and weighs 31.30 kg. It uses DT 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 MK Powered 8GGC2: Mk GEL range and GEL technology The 8GGC2 is part of the MK Powered **Mk GEL** range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family. A GEL battery is the choice when cycle resistance and safety matter most: no gases, no liquid and thousands of partial discharges in its lifetime. ### Why choose MK Powered batteries MK batteries are the standard in the electric mobility sector: sealed, approved for air transport and with the consistency that wheelchair manufacturers demand as original equipment. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty. ### Official warranty The MK Powered 8GGC2 comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty** against manufacturing defects. If it fails through a defect within the warranty period, we replace it at no cost to you. ### Usage and maintenance tips GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte. Recharge the wheelchair or scooter after each use and do not leave it discharged for days: lead sulphates and loses capacity. ### Shipping, delivery and returns 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 MK Powered 8GGC2 a GEL battery? What is GEL used for? Yes, this model is a GEL battery: sealed lead-acid where the electrolyte is in gel form. It tolerates deep discharges very well and is ideal for cyclic use (solar, motorhomes, electric wheelchairs, motorcycles). Requires a GEL-specific smart charger — max charge voltage ~14.1 V (vs 14.4-14.7 V for AGM). Lifespan 6-10 years. ### How is the MK Powered 8GGC2 battery installed in the vehicle? In most devices 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 — match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On devices with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile. ### How long does the MK Powered 8GGC2 battery last? Expected lifespan of the MK Powered 8GGC2 is 6 to 10 years in cyclic use (marine, caravan, solar) with controlled discharges. 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 8GGC2 model? Dimensions (length × width × height) are 260×180×276 mm — also written as 260x180x276 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your device before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals. ### What are the equivalents of the 8GGC2 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 devices. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level. ## Technical team (editorial authorship) The FAQs, guides and comparisons on this site are reviewed by the baterias.com technical team — automotive battery specialists since 2012. → https://baterias.com/gb/technical-team --- *baterias.com — Automotive batteries · 2026-10-25*
