The Optima YTS-2.1 with spiral-cell AGM technology stores 55 Ah at 6 V: autonomy for motorhomes, caravans and campers that need power off-grid. Measuring 252 × 90 × 185 mm and the positive terminal on the left, it is the direct replacement for motorhomes and caravans fitted from the factory with a 55 Ah battery of this format.

  • Recharges from the alternator, a solar panel or a mains charger.
  • Direct replacement for the original leisure battery.
  • Spiral AGM construction, sealed and mountable in any position.
  • Withstands daily discharges throughout the season.

What the Optima YTS-2.1 is for

With 55 Ah, the Optima YTS-2.1 is the habitation battery for motorhomes, caravans and campers that need power off-grid. It recharges from the alternator, a solar panel or a mains charger. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 8.90 kg and 1 terminals.

Will it fit your current battery tray?

The Optima YTS-2.1 is made in the 252 × 90 × 185 mm format and weighs 8.90 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 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 Optima YTS-2.1: Yellow Top range and spiral-cell AGM technology

The YTS-2.1 is part of the Optima Yellow Top range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.

Spiral AGM construction winds the plates into cylindrical pure-lead cells: maximum active surface, extreme vibration resistance and cranking current far above a battery of the same size.

Optima: the maker behind the YTS-2.1

Optima makes spiral-cell (SpiralCell) AGM batteries with pure lead: maximum vibration resistance, very powerful cranking and a durability recognised in 4x4, motorsport, marine and car audio. We guarantee that every Optima arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.

Warranty and coverage

The Optima YTS-2.1 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. Avoid repeated full discharges: they shorten its life and are not covered.

Usage and maintenance tips

During months of storage, keep it charged with a mains charger or a small solar panel; a battery left discharged for weeks loses capacity permanently. Avoid routinely discharging the leisure battery below 50% and recharge it fully after every trip.

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 Optima YTS-2.1 an AGM battery and what are the benefits of AGM?

Yes. The Optima YTS-2.1 is AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat): sealed lead-acid, with the electrolyte absorbed in glass fibre. It withstands more cycles than a conventional battery and copes better with heat.

How much energy does this battery give a caravan?

It stores about 330 Wh. To make it last, it should not be discharged below half, so you have about 165 Wh usable: for example, an average load of 50 W for about 3 hours.

Can it be charged with solar panels?

Yes, with a charge controller (PWM or MPPT) set for AGM. It can also be charged by the vehicle alternator (ideally with a DC-DC charger) and by the 230 V charger when you are on hook-up at the campsite.

What size is this battery?

Its dimensions are 255×90×206 mm, also written 255x90x206 mm; the height already includes the terminals. Check the room available in your caravan, because a single millimetre too much can stop the clamp from closing.

Which side is the positive terminal on this battery?

On the Optima YTS-2.1, the polarity is positive on the left. To check, stand the battery in front of you with the terminals nearest you: the positive (+) is the one with the red ring. Compare it with the battery you are replacing: if it does not match, cables must be lengthened or the system reconfigured, with a risk of short circuit.

Under which reference is the Optima YTS-2.1 listed in catalogues?

Three codes identify this Optima: MPN YTS-2.1, ETN 8183560008882 (short form 818 356 000, the European parts-catalogue identifier) and EAN-13 4016987124093. It belongs to the OPTIMA YELLOW TOP range. Use them when asking for a quote or comparing prices.
