- GEL: excellent resistance to deep discharge and long cycle life.
- Resistant to deep discharges and daily recharging.
- No maintenance, no water top-ups.
- Direct replacement for the machine's original battery.
What the Q-Battery 12GEL-70 is for
With 70 Ah, the Q-Battery 12GEL-70 powers brushes, vacuum and traction of scrubber-dryers, sweepers and industrial cleaning machines throughout the day. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 29.30 kg, A-Pole terminals and B1 hold-down.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
The Q-Battery 12GEL-70 is made in the 308 × 175 × 225 mm format and weighs 29.30 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 B1 hold-down and A-Pole 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 Q-Battery does differently
Q-Battery specialises in AGM and GEL VRLA batteries for UPS, telecoms, solar and deep cycling, with long-life and tubular-plate series for industrial use. We guarantee that every Q-Battery arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.
The Q-Battery 12GEL-70: GEL Traction Battery range and GEL technology
Within the Q-Battery catalogue, the GEL Traction Battery series groups the references designed for this use. The 12GEL-70 is the 70 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
In a GEL battery the electrolyte is gelled with silica: it is fully sealed, cannot spill and tolerates deep discharge very well. It is the preferred technology in electric mobility, marine service and heavy-cycling applications.
Usage and maintenance tips
Recharge the machine at the end of each shift and avoid repeated full discharges. GEL batteries need lower charging voltages: always use a charger with a GEL mode so as not to damage the electrolyte.
Warranty and coverage
The Q-Battery 12GEL-70 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.
Delivery times 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.

How to change the battery
Guide to replace a cyclic battery (12V 4-30Ah) for UPS, mobility scooter, alarm or backup device. Estimated time 10-15 minutes. Important: discharge residual voltage before handling.
Step 1. Power off and unplug the device
Unplug the device (UPS, scooter, alarm) and leave it off for at least 30 seconds to discharge residual capacitor voltage. Work on an insulating surface.
Step 2. Locate the battery compartment
Usually under the seat (mobility scooter/wheelchair), in the rear module of the UPS, or behind a side panel with screws. Check the device manual for unusual models.
Step 3. Disconnect the negative (−) first
With insulated gloves, remove the negative (−) cable first. Some UPS have protection fuses — note their position before removing.
Step 4. Disconnect the positive (+) terminal
Repeat with the positive cable (red, marked +). Important: never let a terminal touch metal of the car while the other is still connected.
Step 5. Remove the old battery
Typical weight 1-15 kg depending on capacity. Many cyclic batteries are AGM/GEL — keep them upright. Do NOT invert the battery: even sealed, residue may exist.
Step 6. Fit the new battery
Same orientation and type (AGM, GEL or flooded). Polarity must match the device, not a chassis (this is not a car). Make sure terminals do not touch metal parts of the compartment.
Step 7. Connect the positive (+) first
On cyclic devices the order is reversed compared to cars: positive (+) first, negative (−) afterwards. Tighten without forcing — the plastic terminal housing of cyclic batteries damages easily.
Step 8. Initial charge before first use
Cyclic batteries ship at 60-80%. Before first use, connect the device charger for 8-12 hours (or use an AGM/GEL smart charger if available). This avoids short cycles and extends lifespan.
Frequently asked questions
Is this battery GEL? What is the typical use?
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 do I fit the 12GEL-70 model in my device?
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 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 devices with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
What is the service life of the 12GEL-70 model?
Expected lifespan of the Q-battery 12GEL-70 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 12GEL-70 model?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 308×175×225 mm — also written as 308x175x225 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.
Which batteries are equivalent to the Q-battery 12GEL-70?
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.
