Battery load refers to the total power demand your vehicle places on the battery. It includes everything from starting the engine to powering headlights, infotainment systems, air conditioning, and other electronics.
Different vehicles have different power requirements—what works for a hatchback may not be suitable for an SUV. Choosing a mismatched battery can lead to underperformance or unnecessary extra costs for excess capacity.
Using the correct Ah (ampere-hour) and CCA (cold cranking amps) ratings ensures your battery can meet both starting and ongoing electrical demands. This helps maintain vehicle reliability and prolongs battery life.
Pro Tip:
Refer to your vehicle’s manual or consult an expert before buying a battery. Choosing one based on specifications—not just size—ensures reliable performance and prevents future issues.
