  • Model Type Description
  • Cold Cranking Amps (CCA): Cold cranking amps are used in the battery industry to define the battery's ability to start the engine at low temperatures.
  • The rating is the number of amperes a new, fully charged battery can deliver at -18 °C (-0.4 °F) for 30 seconds while maintaining a voltage of at least 7.2 volts for a 12-volt battery.
  • The higher the CCA rating, the greater the battery's starting power.
  • RESERVE CAPACITY (RC): Reserve capacity is an industry battery rating that defines the battery's ability to power the vehicle with a non-operating generator or drive belt.
  • The rating is the number of minutes a battery at 27 °C can be discharged at 25 amperes and maintain a voltage of 10.5 volts for a 12-volt battery.
  • The higher the reserve capacity rating, the longer your vehicle can run if the alternator or drive belt fails.
