switches off, to lock and unlock the car and also serve as an additional power supply to buffer the electrical system. They ensure that important safety functions such as ABS and ESP are working at all times. AGM and EFB batteries are far from being obsolete. Their construction and behaviour as well as their lack of electronics make them a reliable and robust power source.

the initial power source to start up the high voltage system; to ensure the uninterrupted function of safety critical systems, in case of a traction battery failure; also for key off-loads like the central locking system. Lead-acid AGM and EFB batteries have proven their reliability for years, making them the perfect choice for supporting the 12 volt electrical system on electric or hybrid electric vehicles. They step in when the high voltage battery fails or

12V Lead Acid Batteries continue to power all types of vehicles, from Conventional to Full Electric and every type of vehicle in between. There is a misconception that Electric Vehicles or Hybrid Vehicles don’t require a 12 volt lead-acid battery, but have you ever wondered what happens when the high voltage battery stops working? In addition to the high voltage traction battery you will find a second one: a 12 volt lead acid battery acting as

What do you need to think about in your workshop? More of these types of vehicles will start to appear in your workshop over time, as they fall out off service plans and warranties. Like conventional vehicles, testing the battery is probably more paramount, as the 12 volt battery will be working extra hard powering numerous infotainment units, safety elements, sensors and in car tech.
