The Yuasa HSB096 Silver 12V Car Battery 5 Year Guarantee is ideal for drivers using one or more plug-in devices, such as phones, cool boxes, DVD players, and Sat Navs, and for drivers using air conditioning. Due to their increased starting capacity (CCA), these batteries are best for cold mornings. With regards to our testing, we tested batteries from a variety of brands and replaced multiple-sized batteries. Car batteries go through a lot. They have to deliver enough punch to start your engine every day and they’re responsible for ensuring your lights, radio, heating, electric windows, and sat-nav operate properly. And, all the while, they’re nestled in our cars’ engine bays in extreme heat when the engine’s on in the height of summer, and extreme cold when it’s off in the depths of winter. But the only time most of us give them a second thought is when they’re flat. Bosch is a well-known and reputable brand that manufactures a range of automotive products, including car batteries. In the United Kingdom, Bosch car batteries are widely available and trusted by many vehicle owners. Free Delivery is not available for Over-Sized parcels, such as Exhausts, Radiators & Headlamps - For details on these items please see the 'Oversized Items' section below.
When purchasing a Bosch car battery in the U.K., it's advisable to ensure that you choose the correct battery model that is compatible with your vehicle's specifications and requirements. It's also recommended to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for battery maintenance and consider professional installation if needed. Halfords’ EFB is available in three common sizes – 096, 100 and 110 – and has a near-five-star rating across the board. Their EFB range is compatible with start-stop systems and they claim to be capable of 270,000 starts. Depending on size, the batteries boast a CCA rating of up to 730 amps. This fixes one of the major reasons for lead acid batteries degrading over time, namely acid stratification. That’s when the electrolyte solution of sulphuric acid and distilled water becomes poorly mixed and impairs the battery’s ability to store and hence give power to the vehicle. All these factories result in AGM batteries lasting much longer than any other type of battery. We’ve explored in detail what causes battery to die and how to recondition them. Enhanced Flooded Batteries (EFB) are a step up from lead acid batteries and are suitable for cars with start-stop systems since they’re able to handle upwards of 250,000 starts in their lifetime. Which might sound like a lot, but start-stop systems can cut the engine dozens of times every journey. Even so, you can expect these batteries to last up to six years – much longer than a lead acid battery.The Bosch S5 096 comes fully charger and ready to fit while also being completely maintenance-free. It includes a 3 year warranty which is a guarantee of its utmost reliability above all else. Most of our online products include VAT and FREE Delivery to the UK Mainland only.

Although car batteries can last many years, they’ll eventually require replacement when they become faulty. Therefore, as we own multiple cars, we replace car batteries far more often than the average motorist, which means that we have experience with a variety of batteries in terms of their size and brand.
Stop start means that your car’s engine cuts out when you stop to save fuel and cut harmful emissions. That’s why, to deliver our best buy verdicts, we’ve broken the market down into types of batteries (all explained below) and have scoured a range of online retailers to see which batteries motorists consider the best of breed. I bought a new Citroen C4 Picasso in 2014. I complained about the car to the main dealers because the ‘Stop-Start wasn’t working and I was told there is nothing wrong with it just need to drive it more. I persevered with the car and the stop-start would only work after driving over 100 miles. Recently I had a problem with the car and because of Covid 19 couldn’t get it fixed . When I finally did there were loads of faults diagnosed and I was told it was because of a poor battery. I bought this battery and everything works as it should.

They’re cheap, durable and, provided you use your car regularly and give it the occasional long run, should last for years.
