CHAPTER 4 - BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS
4.1 Battery Models
The
Lifeline® Series consists of deep cycle as well as engine starting batteries. Capacities of
the deep cycle batteries range from 33 to 1200 ampere-hours (rated at the 20-hour rate) and a
variety of 2-volt, 6-volt and 12-volt models are available. Ratings of the starting batteries range
from 550 amperes to 810 amperes (CCA at 0°F) and these are only available in 12-volt models.
Refer to the battery specification sheet (published separately) for a complete listing of the
mechanical and electrical specifications for each battery model.

or a single plastic handle attached to brackets on the sides of the container.
4.4 Definition of Ratings
Capacity ratings are after 15 cycles per BCI specifications and are stated at 77°F (25°C) to 1.75
volts per cell.
4.5 Temperature Range
Storage (when fully charged): -67°F (-55°C) to 122°F (50°C)
Operating: -40°F (-40°C) to 160°F (71°C).
4.6 UL Recognition
All Lifeline® AGM batteries meet the requirements of UL ® 1989 (Standby Battery) and are UL
recognized under UL File Number MH-17983.
4.7 Shipping Classification
Lifeline® AGM batteries have been tested and determined to comply with the vibration and
pressure differential tests in accordance with DOT 49 CFR 173.159(a) and Special Provision
A67 of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods regulations. As
such, they are classified as a “NONSPILLABLE BATTERY” and can be shipped as non-
hazardous material by any means. To comply with DOT shipping regulations, the battery must
be packaged to protect against short circuits and the battery and outer packaging must be
plainly and durably marked “NONSPILLABLE” or “NONSPILLABLE BATTERY”. See Lifeline®
SDS (published separately) for additional transportation information.
