Varta LAD210 Professional Deep Cycle AGM 210Ah 1180A 12V Battery
The Varta LAD210 battery is the 12 V, 210 Ah model delivering 1180 A of cold cranking power (EN) from Varta's Professional Deep Cycle AGM range, designed for motorhomes, boats and auxiliary power equipment. Its 530 × 209 × 214 mm dimensions and positive terminal on the left make it the exact replacement for the 210 Ah battery fitted as standard in many vehicles.
- Ideal for motorhomes, marine use and domestic power on board.
- Dual cycle: it both cranks the engine and powers auxiliary equipment.
- More endurance on board than a conventional starter battery.
- Tolerates deep discharges and repeated recharging without degrading.
Applications of the Varta LAD210 battery
With 210 Ah, the Varta LAD210 is sized for motorhomes, boats and auxiliary power equipment, as a direct replacement for the original battery. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference weighs 60,2 kg and has a type 1 terminal and a B00 hold-down.
Size and fitting of the Varta LAD210
The Varta LAD210 is made in the 530 × 209 × 214 mm format and weighs 60,2 kg. The positive terminal on the left determines which side the cables run to: it is the detail that causes the most buying mistakes, so it is worth checking before ordering. It uses a B00 hold-down and a type 1 terminal, the system that anchors it to the vehicle's battery tray. Before replacing it, measure the space your current battery occupies: if it matches on all three dimensions and on terminal position, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.
The Varta LAD210 and the Professional Deep Cycle AGM range
The Professional Deep Cycle AGM range consists of AGM deep-cycle batteries designed to run equipment for hours: fridge, lighting, electric outboard or on-board electronics in boats and motorhomes.
They accept deep discharges and repeated recharging that would ruin a starter battery, and being AGM they need no maintenance and carry no risk of spillage.
Unlike a pure starter battery, this range tolerates deep discharges and repeated recharging without degrading: exactly what a motorhome or a boat that draws power with the engine off needs. It therefore combines cranking and domestic duty in a single dual-cycle battery.
Why choose a Varta battery
Choosing Varta means going with the reference the car manufacturer itself signed off on in its day. Against own-brand batteries, the difference is not the purchase price but how many winters the battery lasts before leaving you stranded.
Varta combines more than a century of experience with Clarios's industrial production: it is the battery many manufacturers choose as standard and one of the most recommended by workshops. Like any lead-acid battery, it is 100% recyclable.
Varta is Europe's leading manufacturer of starter batteries: its production volume and quality controls guarantee consistent reliability batch after batch, something own-brand makers cannot always assure.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Varta LAD210 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 seasons when it sees less use. 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.

Frequently asked questions
Is this battery AGM? What is it for?
Yes. The LAD210 from Varta 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 boats with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions.
How do I change this battery step by step?
In most boats 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 — with positive on the left match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On boats with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.
How long does the Varta LAD210 battery last?
Expected lifespan of the Varta LAD210 is 5 to 8 years in mild-climate boat use with 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 dimensions of the Varta LAD210 battery?
Dimensions (length × width × height) are 530×209×214 mm — also written as 530x209x214 mm — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your boat before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.
What polarity does the Varta LAD210 battery have?
Polarity: positive on the left. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.
Will the Varta LAD210 battery fit my boat?
Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The LAD210 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format.
What are the equivalents of the LAD210 model?
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 boats. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
