Electra batteries are characterized by high technical characteristics and meet accepted quality standards. These devices are different in terms of capacity, inrush current, polarity and dimensions, which allows you to choose a battery for any car.

Battery manufacturer Electra
The power source is produced at the production facilities of the plant Kainar AKB LLP. It is located in Kazakhstan, but batteries of this type are widely sold in Russia and the CIS countries. The production uses the latest developments and modern high-quality equipment.
As a result of the optimization of production and the use of high-quality equipment, it has become possible to provide customers with high-end devices at the lowest price. The assortment of products presents options for cars and trucks that have different technical characteristics, but consistently high quality indicators.
Where are Electra batteries used?
Batteries are used to power modern vehicles. A wide range of capacities and high starting characteristics make them one of the best solutions for cars and trucks. Highlight such advantages:
- high quality batteries;
- minimum cost for equipment with such quality;
- minimum material consumption;
- high conductivity of the plates;
- high vibration resistance parameters;
- availability of reserve capacity.
Important! The scope of the battery is wide. However, it is better to take with a margin so that the battery works at its rated capacity and does not go over to the backup one (which has a bad effect on its service life).
Applied technologies and their features
The manufacturer uses advanced calcium technology in the production and high-quality materials. Technology features are:
- the presence of additives for active masses;
- low self-discharge rate;
- low-maintenance device;
- calcium doped plates;
- the presence of high inrush current ratings.
The special development of the company is used - Exmet technology. Due to the fact that the plates of the battery are made of an alloy of lead, tin, calcium and aluminum, and then perforated and hardened, it turns out to achieve a minimum level of self-discharge calcium batteries during operation. In addition, this composition of the plates determines a high resistance to corrosion changes.
Technical characteristics of a model range
Depending on the device for which the battery is intended, its characteristics change. The length, width and weight indicators for each model vary.
Passenger batteries
Batteries for passenger cars differ in such indicators:
- capacity - from 60 to 90 ah;
- polarity - direct and reverse;
- terminal type - standard and ASIA;
- starting current - from 500 to 1150 A.
All car batteries have a voltage of 12 V.
Cargo batteries
Batteries for trucks are not so wide range. Main characteristics:
- capacity from 132 to 190 Ah;
- polarity - usually left;
- starting current - from 500 to 1150 A.
The manufacturer indicates that there is the possibility of lower fasteners for these models.
Service and Charging
Electra batteries are low maintenance. Due to the design features, they have a reduced liquid flow rate, so it is not necessary to open the covers and top up water often, but you still need to monitor the electrolyte level.It is also necessary to ensure that the battery always remains dry and clean. Periodically have to clean terminals from oxidation.
If the voltage drops to 12 volts, then the battery is considered discharged and it must be urgently charged. For this you need her remove battery and bring in a well-ventilated area. After the battery warms up, wipe it dry. Now you can open the cork and check electrolyte leveltop up if necessary.
We set the current strength to 10% of the battery capacity, a voltage of 14.6 volts. Charge for about 10 hours, then check the electrolyte level and voltage level again, it should be 12.6 V.
How to find out the release date and decrypt the code
Performance and shelf life are determined by the date the battery was released. The smaller it is, the better, because in this case the battery will last you longer and show the maximum ratings. The usual numbers indicating the month, year can not be found. The release date is applied using laser perforation on the upper part of the device.
The specified code consists of a set of numbers - markings. Determine the year of manufacture, the exact date will not be difficult on your own. The first and second indicate the week number, the third - the day the device was manufactured. The fourth speaks of the year the party was released.

Reviews
Igor
The Electra battery is optimally suited for modern cars. The values of the cold scroll current are not always indicated, but the consultants suggested this parameter. The battery meets quality standards.
Oleg
The Electra battery has been serving excellently for the third year. Effective in work, no problems.
Konstantin
One of the best deals on the ratio of quality and price. The battery is stable in operation, maintenance is minimal.
I have an Electra battery, I charge it with a voltage of 16 volts since the battery is calcified! Works great !
Why charge if it works perfectly?
Twice a year, you need to recharge the battery before winter and after winter
as of 1,08,19 on the website of Kainar-AKB LLP there is no information about the Electra battery. the representative of this company in the city of Yekaterinburg is also not aware of such “their” products.
we can conclude that AKB Electra is a Russian counterfeit which, as always, they try to pass off as a good company for a quality product.
