Why do Groves sell this and what are our recommendations? |
|
The Exide AGM is one of the latest technologies to join the line up. Exide themselves invented the AGM battery so we believe they know how to make a battery that performs. Exide AGM is fitted in the factory on almost every German made vehicle.
While more expensive than the standard ‘wet’ car battery; an AGM battery is required in many modern vehicles. So much so, fitting the incorrect technology can drastically effect the electrical system and the battery in negative ways.
We have been supplying Exide for well over 40 years, and we believe their quality and value goes far above and beyond the competition.

Battery Terminology:
Ampere, or Amp
The unit of measurement of current flow. One volt placed across a one ohm resistance will cause a current of one Amp to flow.
Ampere-hour or Ah
One amp for one hour is called an “amp-hour” or Ah. Ah is an indicator of the total energy the battery can store and deliver at its rated voltage. Current multiplied by time in hours equals ampere-hours. A current of one amp for one hour would be one amp-hour. The Ah performance rating of automotive batteries is measured over 20 hours of discharge, so a current of 3 amps for 20 hours would be 60 Ah.
Cold Cranking Amperes (CCA)
The CCA is an indicator of the power the battery can deliver for engine start. Consequently, bigger engines usually require higher CCA values to operate. CCA is measured in Amperes under normalised conditions (discharge at -18ºC, keeping battery voltage over a minimum value) according to the standard EN50342-1.
Voltage
All modern conventional cars use a 12V battery consisting of six cells of 2V per cell. For other applications lead-acid batteries are also available in 6V.
