What the Sonnenschein GF12065Y is for
The Sonnenschein GF12065Y is designed for power wheelchairs, mobility scooters and light electric vehicles.

Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 27 kg and AP terminals.

Requires a GEL-specific smart charger — max charge voltage ~14.1 V (vs 14.4-14.7 V for AGM). Lifespan 6-10 years.
What are the dimensions of the Sonnenschein GF12065Y battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 353×175×190 mm — also written as 353x175x190 mm and correspond to the European L5 case size — 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.
