Double Horse Big Terminal Car Battery (Q85 EFB)

Double Horse Big Terminal Car Battery (Q85 EFB) – Advanced Stop-Start Power

The Double Horse Q85 EFB is an Enhanced Flooded Battery specifically engineered for modern vehicles equipped with Idle Stop-Start (ISS) systems. Designed to handle the high electrical loads and frequent engine restarts of advanced fuel-saving technologies, it provides superior durability and faster recharging compared to standard lead-acid batteries.  

### Key Performance Features  

• Enhanced Cycle Durability: Specifically built to withstand the frequent discharge and recharge cycles required by stop-start engines.  

• Rapid Recharge Capability: Features advanced internal components that allow for up to 50% faster recharging than conventional batteries.  

• High Cranking Amps: Typically delivers 620 to 700 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA), ensuring reliable starts for mid-size gasoline and diesel engines.  

• Vibration Resistance: Constructed with thicker, reinforced internal plates to resist damage from shocks and rough road conditions.  

• Big Terminal Design: Equipped with standard tapered Big Terminals to ensure a low-resistance, high-conductivity connection for maximum efficiency.
