- Up to three times the cycles of a conventional battery.
- Compatible with regenerative braking and energy management (BMS).

### What the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 is for

In Start-Stop cars the battery works far harder than in a conventional car; the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 is built for that intensive cycling and to recharge quickly on the move. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 28.50 kg and SAE terminals.

### The Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5: ODP range and AGM technology

The **ODP** is the Odyssey range the ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 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.
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.

### Will it fit your current battery tray?

The Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 is made in the 353 × 175 × 188 mm format and weighs 28.50 kg. The positive terminal on the left decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses SAE 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 Odyssey does differently

Odyssey, part of the EnerSys group, makes thin-plate pure-lead (TPPL) batteries: extreme cranking, total vibration resistance and very long service life in motorsport, 4x4, marine and demanding vehicles. All the Odyssey batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### Usage and maintenance tips

Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators. If the vehicle only does very short trips, a periodic maintenance charge with an AGM/EFB-compatible charger greatly extends its life.

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty**. To keep it valid, always fit the same technology as the original battery (AGM or EFB) and register the replacement if your vehicle requires it.

### Shipping, delivery and returns

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before 6:00 pm**: 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 **14 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 Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 an AGM battery and what are the benefits of AGM?

Yes, it is AGM. In an AGM battery such as the ODP-AGM49-H8-L5, the electrolyte is not free but absorbed in a glass-fibre mat inside a sealed lead-acid battery. It is the technology required by cars with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. It withstands more cycles than a conventional battery and copes better with heat.

### Is this battery compatible with Start-Stop systems?

Yes: being AGM, the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 is designed for Start-Stop cars. AGM batteries support advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking thanks to their higher cycle count. It needs nothing to work, though on most modern cars registering it via OBD is advisable so the alternator adjusts its charging profile. As a rule: EFB for basic Start-Stop, AGM when there is also regenerative braking (more cycles); in any case, what the car manufacturer specifies.

### How is the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 battery fitted in a Start-Stop car?

Before you start, check the car handbook: the manufacturer's procedure always comes first. Our full step-by-step guide is on the blog. Allow 15-30 minutes and a 10 mm spanner for a L5 case like this one. If the car keeps its battery in the boot or under a seat, it can take up to twice as long. The right order: engine off and key out; disconnect the negative (−) first, then the positive (+); release the hold-down clamp, lift out the old battery and seat the new one in the same position (positive on the left), keeping the polarity; reconnect the positive (+) first and the negative (−) last. If the car has Start-Stop or BMS: a) the technology must match the original (AGM or EFB) or be higher, because a conventional battery would fail within months; b) undo the negative cable at its nut, leaving the IBS sensor in place; c) it is advisable to register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the proper charging profile.

### How long does the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 battery last?

As a guide, you can expect the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 to last 5 to 8 years in mild-climate car use with Start-Stop, although the real figure may be higher or lower. It can vary considerably with usage (short or long journeys), temperature, the condition of the alternator and charging system, power drawn with the engine off and maintenance, plus the car itself and Start-Stop. Cold demands more at every start and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte.

### What are the dimensions of the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 battery?

Measure your car's battery tray first; if the battery exceeds it by even a millimetre, the hold-down clamp may not close. Length × width × height: 353x175x188 mm (L5 case). Height is measured to the top of the terminals.

### Which side is the positive terminal on this battery?

On the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5, the polarity is positive on the left. It must match your current battery: reversed polarity means lengthening cables or reconfiguring the system, with a risk of short circuit. To check, stand the battery in front of you with the terminals nearest you: the positive (+) is the one with the red ring.

### Is the ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 valid for my vehicle?

Not sure? Try your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine) or the "Compatible vehicles" tab, checked by our technical team; if your car is not there, send us make, model, engine and year on WhatsApp and we will reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). If our table and the car handbook disagree, go with what the manufacturer says.

### Which batteries are equivalent to the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5?

To replace the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 without modifications, the other battery must be identical in size (L5 case), polarity, Ah and CCA. Not just any technology will do: an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop cars. The "Equivalents" section further down lists the recommended alternatives.

### Why choose AGM instead of EFB for my Start-Stop car?

For regenerative braking systems such as BMW EfficientDynamics, Mercedes Eco, Audi MHEV, Land Rover ECO or Volvo i-Stop, AGM is the recommendation; it also copes better than an EFB with tilting, vibration and extreme temperatures. Many more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional battery and no leaks: that is what AGM technology brings, with the electrolyte absorbed in glass fibre. This ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 delivers 950 A cold cranking (EN).

### Do I need to register the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5 on the car after installation?

Advisable, yes; essential, on most cars, no. Registering it via OBD makes the alternator charge with the optimum profile from the first minute and extends battery life, which matters most on brands with sophisticated BMS such as BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo or Land Rover. A workshop only needs an OBD scanner and a few minutes. DIY apps: VCDS / Carista (VAG), Bimmercode (BMW), iCarsoft. Even if you do not register the Odyssey ODP-AGM49-H8-L5, the car will start correctly; the profile adjusts within a few days.
