Varta LA60 Professional Dual Purpose AGM 60Ah 680A 12V Battery

The Varta LA60 battery is the 12 V, 60 Ah model delivering 680 A of cold cranking power (EN), from Varta's Professional Dual Purpose AGM range, designed for motorhomes, boats and auxiliary power equipment. Its 242 × 175 × 190 mm dimensions and positive terminal on the right make it the exact replacement for the 60 Ah battery fitted as standard in many vehicles.

• Dual cycle: it both starts the engine and powers auxiliary equipment.
• Ideal for motorhomes, boating and leisure power.
• Withstands deep discharges and repeated recharging without degrading.
• More on-board running time than a conventional starter battery.

Applications of the Varta LA60 battery

The Varta LA60 covers the needs of motorhomes, boats and auxiliary power equipment with 60 Ah of capacity and a construction built for that use. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference weighs 17.50 kg and has a B13 hold-down.

Format and fitting of the Varta LA60

In terms of format, the Varta LA60 measures 242 × 175 × 190 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 17.50 kg. The positive terminal on the right determines which side the cables sit on: it is the detail that causes the most buying mistakes, so it is worth checking before you order. It uses a B13 hold-down, the system that anchors it to the vehicle's battery tray. For the swap to be direct, the space your current battery occupies must match those three dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise you will need adapters or the hold-down will have to change.

The Varta LA60 and the Professional Dual Purpose AGM range

The Professional Dual Purpose AGM range combines dual purpose (starting + leisure supply) with AGM technology, which brings greater resistance to cycling, zero maintenance and safety against spillage.

It is the demanding choice for motorhomes and boats that need to start the engine and sustain a heavy equipment load with maximum durability.

Unlike a pure starter battery, this range withstands deep discharges and repeated recharging without degrading: exactly what a motorhome or a boat drawing power with the engine off requires. It therefore combines starting and leisure supply in a single dual-cycle battery.

Why choose a Varta battery

Choosing Varta means going with the reference the car manufacturer itself signed off in the first place. Against own-brand batteries, the difference is not the purchase price but how many winters the battery lasts before it leaves you stranded.

Varta batteries are made under the Clarios group with German technology and quality controls that make them one of the best-selling choices in Europe. As a lead battery, it is 100% recyclable through any collection point.

Varta is Europe's leading manufacturer of starter batteries: its production volume and quality controls guarantee consistent reliability batch after batch, something own-brand labels cannot always promise.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Varta LA60 battery comes with the official manufacturer warranty.

Care and maintenance

In leisure applications, avoiding discharges below 50% of capacity multiplies the number of cycles the battery will deliver. A suitable charger and, where possible, a solar regulator keep it healthy through the quieter seasons. To extend its life, recharge it as soon as possible after each discharge and never leave it flat over the winter. A trickle charger is the best investment for getting many cycles out of it.
