Why choose SSB HVT DryCell AGM?
- One battery, more than one role. Genuine dual-purpose AGM construction supports starting, deep-cycle and backup power in a correctly matched system.
- Under-bonnet suitability. SSB lists the HVT DryCell AGM range as suitable for under-bonnet use, with vibration resistance for demanding applications.
- Less routine upkeep. The sealed AGM design needs no water top-ups. Match the battery capacity, charging equipment and installation to your vehicle or auxiliary-power needs.

Is this the right battery for you?
Choose it for a compatible 12V starting, deep-cycle or backup application. Check the required CCA/Ah, dimensions, terminal positions, hold-down and charging system. For a dual-battery setup, caravan, boat or stop-start vehicle, ask us to confirm the complete application rather than choosing by battery code alone.

Sunshine Coast delivery & fitting help
$9.95 local delivery across the Sunshine Coast, QLD. Installation available by quote.
Suncoast Batteries builds on the local Super Start Batteries business, serving the Sunshine Coast since 1994 with quality batteries.
Please confirm availability and timing before ordering.
Will this HVT battery suit my vehicle or setup?
Match the 259 × 168 × 208mm case and 214mm total height, STD terminals, assembly 1 layout and hold-down to your installation. In SSB's assembly 1 diagram, the positive terminal is on the left when the terminal edge faces you. Check the actual positive/negative positions and cable reach; the HVT-70LD has the opposite terminal arrangement.
Starting and deep-cycle use have different requirements. For a vehicle, confirm its year, engine and battery-management requirements. For an auxiliary system, check the load, required capacity and charging equipment. An 85Ah rating alone does not promise a particular fridge runtime, and AGM construction alone does not confirm stop-start fitment.
View the SSB vehicle fitment guide (PDF). The guide is a reference; confirm your exact vehicle requirements.

Options for delivery outside the Sunshine Coast, urgent replacement or old-battery disposal must be confirmed before ordering. Need help with a return or refund? Call us on 0484 851 167 to discuss your options.
Battery care & safe installation
Use charging equipment approved for a 12V AGM lead-acid battery and follow the battery label, charger and vehicle instructions. SSB lists a minimum charge current of 8.5A and maximum of 36A for this model. Confirm the voltage profile and suitability of your mains charger, solar regulator or DC-DC charger before connecting it; do not assume every charger or alternator setup is compatible. Charging limits depend on temperature and charge mode. The linked HVT-70D datasheet gives charging guidance, including a 0–40°C charging range; follow the instructions supplied with your battery and confirm any differences with us.
Keep the battery secure and terminals protected. Follow the manufacturer's installation and ventilation instructions, keep sparks and flames away, and ask about professional fitting if your vehicle needs specific replacement procedures. Use an appropriate battery recycling service for the old unit.
Manufacturer warranty & support
SSB's current HVT DryCell AGM warranty guide lists different periods by application:
- Private starting or marine use: 36 months.
- Private deep-cycle or stop-start use: 24 months.
- Commercial starting, marine, stop-start or deep-cycle use: 12 months.
- Standby / backup use: 12 months.
- Taxi use: 6 months.
For electric-vehicle deep-cycle applications such as mobility scooters, golf carts, buggies and wheelchairs, the guide limits cover to 6 months. The 36-month private-starting period is not a blanket warranty for every use.
SSB provides an equivalent replacement for qualifying manufacturing faults within the applicable period, after assessment and with proof of purchase. Manufacturer cover is for the original end user; transport to and from SSB testing centres is at the customer's cost. Replacement does not restart the original warranty.
Exclusions include incorrect application, flat batteries, normal wear, physical damage and incorrect charging. Your Australian Consumer Law rights apply in addition to the manufacturer warranty and are not limited by these terms.
Many modern vehicles use Stop-Start technology, where the engine automatically switches off when you stop at traffic lights to save fuel and reduce emissions. These vehicles require a Stop-Start compatible battery, typically from the EFB (Enhanced Flooded Battery) range.
- Your engine automatically turns off at traffic lights
- You see an A with a circular arrow symbol on your dashboard
- Your vehicle handbook mentions Stop-Start technology
- Your current battery is labelled EFB or AGM
If your vehicle has Stop-Start, you should replace the battery with an EFB or AGM battery. Installing a standard battery can lead to poor performance and reduced battery life. Not sure? Contact us via LIVE CHAT and we’ll help confirm the correct battery for your vehicle.
