SuperCharge SMFN70ZZX 12V SilverPlus Battery

SuperCharge lists the SMFN70ZZX under 4WD in its SilverPlus range: a sealed 12V unit rated at 765 CCA, with 85Ah of capacity.

Owners who would rather not lift caps or check cells get a case with nothing to open, plus a built in hydrometer eye.

Problems it solves

• Engine that labours on a frosty morning at the campsite. With 765 CCA on tap, the starter motor is not left wanting.
• Alternator gives up halfway down the highway. A reserve of 165 minutes gives you a sensible margin to reach a workshop.
• Topping up after every trip away. Being sealed, there is no electrolyte to watch.

Fitment and compatibility

Run a tape over your tray first. The case takes 304 mm by 173 mm of floor and is 203 mm tall at the lid, rising to 224 mm over the terminals.

Posts are standard terminals laid out as assembly D, and the case has an FL ledge.

Still unsure? Drop the old unit on our counter and we will measure the pair up for you.

Check the positive post sits on the same side as before; with assembly D the cables should fall onto the posts without pulling.

Hook the hold down over the FL ledge and snug it so nothing rocks over corrugations.

SMFN70ZZX FAQs

Will the SMFN70ZZX sit in the same tray as my old N70?

It should if the old one measures 304 x 173 x 203 mm, stands 224 mm to the top of the posts and has its terminals in assembly D.

Which terminal comes off first when I fit the SMFN70ZZX at home?

Negative off first, then positive. Lift the old battery out, fit the new one the same way round, positive on, negative on last, and clamp it firmly.

Is there a filler cap on the SMFN70ZZX for adding water?

No. SuperCharge makes it fully sealed and maintenance free, so routine electrolyte top ups are not part of owning it.
