The **Ritar RA12-240A** with AGM technology stores **254 Ah** at **12 V**: autonomy for motorhomes, caravans and campers that need power off-grid. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in motorhomes and caravans with a 522 × 240 × 224 mm format: same 254 Ah capacity.
- AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle.
- Power for fridge, lighting, water pump and USB off-grid.
- Sealed and gas-free: suitable for installation inside the living area.
- Low self-discharge during months of storage.

### Dimensions, polarity and mounting

In terms of format, the Ritar RA12-240A measures 522 × 240 × 224 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 43.70 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.

### What the Ritar RA12-240A is for

As a leisure battery, the Ritar RA12-240A is discharged and recharged every travelling day; avoid discharges below 50% to extend its life. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 43.70 kg and M8 terminals.

### The Ritar RA12-240A: RA range and AGM technology

The RA12-240A is part of the Ritar **RA** range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology seals the electrolyte in glass microfibre. The result is a maintenance-free battery that is highly vibration-resistant and able to withstand deep discharges that would ruin a classic lead-acid battery.

### What Ritar does differently

Ritar is one of the world's largest VRLA battery manufacturers. Its RA, RT, RL, HR and FT series equip UPS, telecoms and solar systems worldwide with very consistent quality. All the Ritar batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty.

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Ritar RA12-240A comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty** against manufacturing defects. Avoid repeated full discharges: they shorten its life and are not covered.

### Care and maintenance

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 RA12-240A model AGM? What does this technology offer?

Yes. The RA12-240A from Ritar 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 caravans with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.

### How much energy does this battery give a caravan?

It stores about 3,048 Wh. To make it last, it should not be discharged below half, so you have about 1,524 Wh usable: for example, an average load of 50 W for about 30 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 are the dimensions of the Ritar RA12-240A battery?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 522×240×224 mm — also written as 522x240x224 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your caravan before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
