BATTERIES

VETUS batteries
Specially designed for use aboard pleasure craft
VETUS batteries are designed with consideration of the varying seasonal demands of boating. During the winter months
the battery will mostly be unused, therefore the batteries have a minimal rate of self-discharge and can still be relied on to
start the engine again the following season. We strongly advise the use of a float charger during winter storage. During the
boating season, the batteries are able to supply both small constant loads as well as heavy but short loads for the use of a
bow thruster. VETUS offers 3 different types of marine batteries, each with their own characteristics. To help you select the
best battery for a specific purpose, please refer to the battery selection chart.
