Lead-acid Starter Battery FIAMM VR170 12 V 10 Ah 170 A

FIAMM VR170 is a 12 V lead-acid starter battery with a nominal capacity of 10 Ah and a cold cranking current of 170 A. Designed to deliver short bursts of high current, this compact starter battery is intended for engine starting and providing auxiliary power in small cars, motorcycles and light equipment that require a reliable 12 V power source with defined cranking performance.

Advantages

The battery offers compact dimensions and an optimized lead‑acid design that ensures dependable starting performance at low temperatures. Its rated 10 Ah capacity balances size and reserve energy for occasional accessory use, while the 170 A cold cranking current provides reliable ignition even under unfavorable conditions. The FIAMM construction follows standard starter battery design practices to deliver predictable, repeatable starts and straightforward installation.

Suitable for

• Small passenger cars requiring a compact 12 V starter battery
• Motorcycles and scooters with 12 V starter systems
• Light agricultural or garden equipment with 12 V engines
• Portable or standby applications needing short high-current delivery

Key specifications

• Nominal voltage: 12 V
• Nominal capacity: 10 Ah (ampere-hours)
• Cold cranking current (CCA): 170 A
• Chemistry: lead‑acid starter battery
• Primary use: engine starting and auxiliary 12 V power

How to use

Install the FIAMM VR170 in the vehicle or equipment according to the manufacturer's terminal polarity and mounting orientation. Ensure terminals are clean and connections are secure to minimize voltage drop during cranking. Observe standard safety precautions for lead‑acid batteries: avoid short circuits between terminals, keep sparks and open flames away, and use protective equipment when handling electrolyte or servicing the battery. Charge the battery with a compatible 12 V charger if the state of charge is low before attempting repeated starts.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, maintain the battery charged and periodically check terminal condition. Use the battery primarily for engine starting and short auxiliary loads; avoid deep discharge cycles that reduce service life. If storing for extended periods, keep the battery in a cool, dry place and recharge periodically to prevent sulfation.
