The car battery must provide the vehicle with the necessary amount of electricity. The battery capacity should be selected as accurately as possible so that the battery does not overload the generator during recharging, and at the same time cope with the high cost of electricity during engine start-up.
For example, for some premium passenger cars, the battery capacity of 90 a / h is insufficient, but a more capacious device with 100 amp hours simply does not fit in the installation location. In this case, a 95 ah battery is ideal.

How much does a 95 Ah battery weigh?
The bulk of the acid battery comes from lead. Plastic and electrolyte also affect weight. So a fully flooded battery will weigh around 20-23 kg, depending on technology and manufacturer.
At the same time, all lead will account for about 75-80% of the total weight, another 15-20% of the mass is electrolyte, the rest is plastic.
Battery Dimensions and Terminal Options
6ST-95 batteries can vary in polarity, as well as in terminal diameter and body type. The Asian corps looks closer to the square. Terminals such as Asia are thinner than European ones and they stick out over the battery. The European batteries are lower, the terminals are thicker and they are recessed flush with the cover.
| Terminal type | Long mm | Width mm | Height mm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 350-353 | 175 | 185-190 |
| ASIA | 302-306 | 171-174 | 198-225 |
Dimensions may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer. In standard, this is not critical, but with Asian you need to be careful.
How much electrolyte is in the battery 95 a / h
The battery is not able to function normally without electrolyte. The sulfuric acid solution provides a chemical reaction between the negative and positive plates of the battery.
Many modern batteries are produced in a maintenance-free case, so they are charged with electrolyte at the factory, and during operation it is not necessary to somehow regulate the liquid level inside the battery. For owners of serviced models with a capacity of 95 Ah, information on how much electrolyte is in this type of battery is very important. In each can of such a battery, it is necessary to pour 0.85 liters of sulfuric acid solution, so the total volume of electrolyte will be about 5 liters.
How to charge the battery 95 a / h
In order to quickly and safely restore a battery with a capacity of 95 a / h, it is recommended to charge it with a current that is 10% of the battery capacity. That is, a car battery of this type is charged with a current of 9.5 amperes. The duration of such a charge should be about 10 hours.
If the battery has undergone a deep discharge, then for safer recovery it is recommended to reduce the current strength by half, while increasing the charging time to 20 hours.
For which cars is the battery 95 a / h suitable
This type of battery is suitable for cars with an engine power of more than 150 horses. Also, a powerful battery may be needed when installing additional powerful current consumers in the on-board electrical system of the machine.
Depending on the type of fuel and the injection system, the battery is suitable:
- Gasoline carburetor engines - 5-6.2 liters
- Gasoline engines with fuel injection - more than 3.5 liters
- Diesel engines - 3.5 liters
You can not do without a high-power battery when the machine is equipped with a start-stop engine start system. In this situation, you should choose batteries made by technology Agm, GEL or Efbthat allow deep discharge of the battery without significant consequences for its technical condition.
Which battery 95 a / h to choose and what to look for
First of all, when buying a new battery, make sure that the product is suitable for installation in a regular place under the hood. An equally important factor affecting the correct connection of the battery to the on-board system is the position of the terminals on the housing. If the terminals are standard, then connecting the battery will not be difficult, otherwise, you will need to extend the negative conductor.
In order not to be mistaken with the choice of the manufacturer, it is recommended to purchase products of well-known companies. The most popular in the domestic market are batteries with a capacity of 95 ampere hours of the following brands:

When choosing a new battery, even a reliable manufacturer, you can accidentally purchase a product that has been lying on the shelf for too long. To avoid this, it is necessary to determine the "age" of the battery, according to the release date, which must be applied by the manufacturer to the battery case.

Igor. Moscow.
I bought a 12 v 95 Ah battery for installation on a jeep. The old 90 amp battery could not cope with long night trips at low speed.
Novel. city of Abinsk.
I use a 95 Ah gel battery as a traction battery for a homemade cultivator. The battery not only copes well with providing a 0.5 kW electric motor with the necessary amount of energy, but also, having a considerable mass, serves as a kind of ballast, thanks to which the knives are easily immersed even in very hard ground.

I use a 95 Ah 12 volt battery for uninterruptible power supply. The product copes with the provision of electricity to the liquid circulation systems in the heating system of a private house.
