Marine batteries

Choose the best marine battery to power your boat

When you're looking for a marine battery for your boat, you'll be faced with a wide range of variants, each offering specific advantages. These include AGM (absorbent glass mat) and lithium batteries. AGM batteries are often preferred for engine starting, while lithium batteries are commonly used for on-board electrical systems or fishing equipment (GPS sounder, electric motor...).

In addition, there are options such as lead-gel and lead-acid batteries, which are specially designed for slow-discharge energy storage applications. Although lithium batteries offer better energy density and longer life, they are generally more expensive.

Before making your choice, take into account the specific needs of your boat and your intended use in order to select the marine battery that best meets your requirements in terms of power, capacity and budget. You'll easily find the battery you need by browsing the categories and filters (volts, capacity, amps) on the comptoir nautique website

Maximize the performance of your marine battery with the right accessories

To guarantee optimum performance and longer life for your marine batteries, it's essential to use the right accessories. The right battery chargers and voltage monitors will enable you to charge and maintain your battery in the best possible conditions. Make sure you regularly monitor your battery's charge and discharge levels, and store it in a cool, dry place to preserve its quality.

You can also consider different recharging methods, such as solar, wind or generator power, which can help you save on electricity costs.

Some manufacturers, such as Victron Energy or Dolphin Charger, for example, offer quality products specially designed for marine batteries, guaranteeing longer life and improved performance.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES

There are several options for recharging boat batteries. Once you've chosen the right battery for your boat from our range of marine batteries, starter batteries, combi batteries, etc., you'll need to take into account the desired technology (lithium, lead, AGM, etc.) and characteristics such as discharge capacity, service life and price. Lithium batteries are becoming increasingly popular due to their light weight, longer life and high energy storage capacity.

You can choose a charging system to suit your needs. If your boat is fitted with an engine and alternator, you can use the engine itself to recharge the batteries while sailing. Another option is to use an external charger connected to an external power source (wind generator, solar panel, port socket...). Be sure to monitor the battery voltage during the recharging process to avoid overcharging or undercharging.
