Tolerates the typical daily cycles on a boat (engine start + night-time services such as lights, sonar, fridge) and holds voltage even when the hull is rolling in open sea. ## Why this marine battery? - **Marine design** built for boat swell and vibration - **Dual function** starts the engine and powers onboard services - **Sealed and safe** maintenance-free even when the boat rolls πŸ”Œ Voltage 12 V ⚑ Capacity 190 Ah C20 πŸ”‹ Cold cranking 1050 A EN-1 πŸ“ Dimensions 513Γ—223Γ—223 mm βš™οΈ Technology EFB 🧭 Polarity Positive on the left βš–οΈ Weight 46,99 kg 🏷️ Model Professional Dual Purpose EFB ## Description ## Varta LED190 Professional Dual Purpose EFB 190Ah 1050A 12V Battery 12*V* Voltage 190*Ah* Capacity 1050*A* Cold cranking 46.99*kg* Weight The **Varta LED190 battery** is the **12 V**, **190 Ah** model delivering **1050 A** of cold cranking power (EN), from Varta's **Professional Dual Purpose EFB** range, designed for motorhomes, boats and auxiliary power equipment. Measuring 513 Γ— 223 Γ— 223 mm, it is the direct replacement for vehicles fitted from the factory with a 190 Ah battery in this format. - Ideal for motorhomes, boating and leisure power. - Dual cycle: it both starts the engine and powers auxiliary equipment. - More on-board running time than a conventional starter battery. - Withstands deep discharges and repeated recharging without degrading. ### Applications of the Varta LED190 battery With 190 Ah, the Varta LED190 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 46.99 kg and has a type 3 terminal and a B00 hold-down. ### Format and fitting of the Varta LED190 The Varta LED190 is made in the 513 Γ— 223 Γ— 223 mm format and weighs 46.99 kg. It uses a B00 hold-down and a type 3 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 LED190 and the Professional Dual Purpose EFB range The **Professional Dual Purpose EFB** range applies EFB technology to dual starting and leisure use, with more resistance to cycling than a conventional battery at a moderate cost. It sits between the standard dual-purpose range and AGM: a solid step up for leisure and boating without paying AGM prices. 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 A good share of the vehicles on Europe's roads left the factory with a Varta fitted: the brand has been supplying the assembly lines of the leading automotive groups for decades. Replacing with a Varta means, in practice, giving the vehicle back the battery its manufacturer intended. 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's production combines automated lines with verification of more than 100 parameters per unit; that traceability is what underpins its reputation for reliable starting throughout the battery's life. ### Manufacturer's warranty The Varta LED190 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. ### Technical sheet Download the official technical sheet for this battery with all the manufacturer data.

The LED190 is an EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery): flooded lead-acid reinforced with plate additives. Withstands more cycles than a conventional but fewer than an AGM. Fitted to boats with basic Start-Stop (no regenerative braking). More affordable than an equivalent AGM, lifespan 4-6 years. ### 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 this page. 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 (βˆ’) 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 β€” match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (βˆ’). 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 LED190 battery last? Expected lifespan of the Varta LED190 is 4 to 6 years in basic Start-Stop boat use. 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 LED190 model? Dimensions (length Γ— width Γ— height) are 513Γ—223Γ—223 mm β€” also written as 513x223x223 mm β€” 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. ### Will the Varta LED190 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 β€” we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The LED190 typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format. ### What are the equivalents of the LED190 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 β€” 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. ## Equivalent batteries - [VARTA M12](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-varta-m12-12v-180ah-1400a) - [VARTA B90](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-varta-b90-efb-12v-190ah-1050a) ## Reviews - **Average rating**: 4.76 / 5 (30 reviews) ## Technical team (editorial authorship) The FAQs, guides and comparisons on this site are reviewed by the baterias.com technical team β€” over 25 years of experience validating automotive batteries. β†’ https://baterias.com/gb/technical-team --- *baterias.com β€” Automotive batteries Β· 2026-10-06*
