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).

74Ah @ 20hr rate - that's 3.7A for 20 hours until the battery voltage is 10.5V
65Ah @ 10hr rate - that's 6.5A for 10 hours until the battery voltage is 10.5V
Reserve capacity 145 minutes at 25A discharge
BCI Group 65
At 300mm long the battery fits in group 27 length but with the Euro feet/hold downs the width is 183mm, this may not fit in some moulded cases for marine applications. Can be used as a replacement for DIN 75 batteries because of the low height but would have exposed terminals with Positive on left with terminals closest to you.
