The Varta Professional Dual Purpose AGM Battery (LA95) is designed for boat owners, caravanners, and motorhome enthusiasts who require a reliable, versatile power source for both engine starting and onboard domestic electronics. Its standout benefit is its robust AGM construction, which provides high vibration resistance and spill-proof operation, though users should be mindful that its weight requires careful handling during installation.

It is not recommended. You should use a charger with an AGM-specific charging profile to prevent overcharging and plate degradation.
Yes, because the AGM technology is sealed and spill-proof, it emits minimal gases, making it safe for interior compartments.
It means the battery is built to provide a high surge of power for starting an engine and a sustained, steady flow for powering electronics.
Never. This is a sealed, maintenance-free battery, and opening it will destroy its internal pressure balance.
The AGM design allows for high-tilt installation, though upright mounting is always preferred for optimal plate lifespan.
Verify the charging system is AGM-compatible and check for hidden parasitic electrical draws in your vehicle or boat.
Clean the terminals of any oxidation and check that the cable connections are secure and not loose.
Installation requires securing the battery in a well-ventilated area using appropriate hold-down brackets, as AGM batteries are heavy. Ensure that all terminal connections are cleaned and tightened to prevent voltage drop and heat buildup. When charging, it is essential to use a battery charger with an 'AGM' or 'Deep Cycle' setting. Standard chargers may use a higher charging voltage that can permanently damage the sensitive chemistry of the AGM plates. During the off-season, store the battery in a cool, dry place and ensure it is fully charged before long-term storage to prevent self-discharge damage. Periodic checks of the state-of-charge are recommended if the battery remains idle for more than three months.
