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).

16Ah @ 20hr rate - that's 0.8A for 20 hours until the battery voltage is 10.5V
16Ah @ 10hr rate - that's 1.6A for 10 hours until the battery voltage is 10.5V
Reserve Capacity 24 minutes at 25A discharge
Terminal Features include:
Encapsulated M6 bolt fastened using an M5 Allen key
Coarse thread Heli-coil inserts and bolt supplied so you can fasten large eyelets to the top of the terminal like a marine or dual purpose terminal
Terminals are removable with an Allen key to reduce battery height and they use an M6 bolt insert.
