How to Distinguish Start-Stop Batteries?

[JessicaRose]

Start-stop batteries can be distinguished by their appearance. Start-stop batteries have dedicated markings on their exterior, while regular batteries do not have such specific symbols. The relevant details are as follows: Start-stop batteries: Also known as maintenance-free batteries, they are currently mainly categorized into AGM and EFB types. The two types of batteries have different dedicated symbols, as follows: those marked with Valve-controlled, VRLA, or AGM are valve-regulated AGM batteries. EFB: Those marked with ST, N55, Q85, S95, EFB, start/stop, or "for idle stop system vehicles" are all EFB start-stop batteries. In other words, if you see any of these markings on the battery's exterior, you can determine that it is a start-stop battery.
