### What the Trojan 18-DC500ML is for

The Trojan 18-DC500ML is designed for golf carts and electric utility vehicles: deep discharges every day and a full overnight recharge. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 447 kg.

### Dimensions, polarity and mounting

In terms of format, the Trojan 18-DC500ML measures 895 × 486 × 425 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 447 kg. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.

### The Trojan 18-DC500ML: ciclo profundo - T2 Technology range and conventional lead-acid technology

The 18-DC500ML is part of the Trojan **ciclo profundo - T2 Technology** range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.
The conventional lead-acid battery remains the most widespread technology thanks to its balance of capacity, cranking current and price. Well maintained and kept charged, it offers years of reliable service in vehicles without Start-Stop.

### Why choose Trojan batteries

Founded in 1925 in California, Trojan invented the golf cart battery and remains the standard in deep-discharge applications that demand thousands of cycles. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Trojan 18-DC500ML 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.

### Usage and maintenance tips

Always replace all the batteries in the bank at once and use the charger specified by the vehicle manufacturer. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.

### Shipping, delivery and returns

Same-day dispatch from our warehouse for in-stock orders placed **before [[ks:cutoff]]**: 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 **[[ks:return_days]] days** if the battery has not been used (free collection on the Iberian mainland). You will receive tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### How is the Trojan 18-DC500ML battery installed in the vehicle?

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 our blog. 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 18-DC500ML model?

Expected lifespan of the Trojan 18-DC500ML is 4 to 6 years in regular device use without Start-Stop. 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 18-DC500ML model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 895×486×425 mm — also written as 895x486x425 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 Trojan 18-DC500ML?

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.
