Starting Batteries
Cranking or Starting battery, this simply means the battery has capacity when correctly sized to start an engine. A larger engine requires a larger battery and the extra volume within the battery gives more surface area for the plates to create a larger chemical reaction to produce more current to start your vehicle/engine.
AGM batteries are designed to have a higher energy density and therefore a higher cranking output. Many times a smaller AGM battery can easily start a vehicle that might have typically had a much larger battery in it. Lithium batteries have a higher energy density again and while there are other considerations with a different type of chemistry they are even smaller and much lighter than AGM batteries because they don't contain a heavy metal (lead).

The Genesis 16Ah EP series battery from Enersys uses Thin Plate Pure Lead (TPPL) technology to provide high power discharge, high cranking suitable for UPS systems with high initial current requirement. It's also perfect for Jump Start battery power in a standard size utilised by many global manufacturers. If you want to increase the performance of your run pack then use these batteries.
