Tudor TB712 12V 71Ah 670A is a starter battery with OEM-equivalent quality, designed for modern passenger cars. Delivers reliable cold-cranks even after weeks of inactivity and supports stable auxiliary loads (lights, climate control, infotainment).
Where it fits: the Tudor TB712 is one of our car batteries and belongs to our Tudor batteries.
Mostly to Skoda Octavia and Opel Astra H (2 orders with the vehicle identified). Run it through the plate finder before buying: two versions of the same model can call for different cases.
If your car shuts the engine off at the lights, rule it out: Start-Stop demands EFB or AGM and a conventional battery lasts months in that duty. And never choose fewer Ah or A than the original.
With 71 Ah at 12 V and 670 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Tudor TB712 from the Technica range is a starter battery built for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Its 278 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 71 Ah battery fitted as standard to many cars.
In short: the Tudor TB712 (71 Ah, 670 A, 278 × 175 × 175 mm, positive terminal on the right). It is a conventional battery for cars without Start-Stop: if yours has Start-Stop, it needs an EFB or AGM battery of the same size. Verified equivalent alternatives: Varta E9 and Exide EB712.
With 71 Ah, the Tudor TB712 is sized for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It is a direct replacement for the original battery as long as dimensions and terminals match. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 15.30 kg.
In terms of format, the Tudor TB712 measures 278 × 175 × 175 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 15.30 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. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Technica is the Tudor range the TB712 belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.
In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.
Tudor has made batteries in Spain for more than a century and remains one of the brands most trusted by Spanish workshops for reliability and value. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.
The Tudor TB712 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects; the exact period is stated in the brand's conditions. If it fails through a defect within the period, we replace it free of charge.
In normal daily use the alternator keeps the battery charged; if the car stands for weeks, a maintenance charge once a month prevents deep discharge. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.
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.

Fitting it yourself? Step-by-step guide to replacing the battery →
Steps: 1) switch off and remove the key; 2) find the battery (bonnet, boot or under a seat); 3) undo the negative (−), then the positive (+); 4) remove the clamp and the old battery; 5) fit the new one facing the same way (positive on the right) to match the polarity; 6) connect the positive (+) and finally the negative (−). Allow 15-30 minutes and a 10 mm spanner for a LB3 case like this one. If the car keeps its battery in the boot or under a seat, it can take up to twice as long. If the car manufacturer lists any extra step in the handbook, follow it. More detail in how to replace the car battery.
Estimated lifespan of the Tudor TB712: 4 to 6 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. Treat it as an approximate guide, as every case is different. What weighs most: temperature (cold makes starts harder and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte), frequent short trips, the condition of the alternator and charging system, power draw while parked and maintenance, not forgetting the type of car and Start-Stop.
Length × width × height: 278x175x175 mm (LB3 case). Height is measured to the top of the terminals. Measure your car's battery tray first; if the battery exceeds it by even a millimetre, the hold-down clamp may not close.
The TB712 has the positive on the right in a LB3 case: that is its polarity. It must match your current battery: reversed polarity means lengthening cables or reconfiguring the system, with a risk of short circuit. Face the battery with its terminals nearest you and see which side the positive post (+, red ring) is on.
The TB712 fits 116 verified vehicle versions in our database. Three routes: the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, with the vehicles verified by our technical team; your number plate in the finder, from which DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine; and WhatsApp, with make, model, engine and year, during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). If our table and the car handbook disagree, go with what the manufacturer says.
Not just any technology will do: an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop cars. The "Equivalents" section further down lists the recommended alternatives. Interchangeable means the same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and same CCA; for the TB712, 71 Ah (670 A cranking).
The next step up from the TB712 in the same range and the same case. Compared with the TB712 it has 1 Ah more and 50 A of cold cranking more. It costs 8,30 € less. The one to pick for big engines or heavy equipment; in a simple car the TB712 is enough.
It is the verified Exide equivalent for the TB712 tray. Compared with the TB712 it has 1 Ah more and 50 A of cold cranking more. It costs 14,40 € less. Decide by price, brand preference and availability: both fit and crank the same.
