XB5L-B Sealed AGM MF Battery
Xtreme Volts XB5L-B is a direct replacement for the Yuasa YB5L-B, 12N5-3B batteries supplied with your vehicle. The XB5L-B measures 4.75" wide x 2.375" deep x 5.125" high. When viewing the battery with the terminals on the side of the battery closest to you the positive terminal is on the left side, negative on the right. It is a 12 volt battery, rated at 5 amp hours, and 100 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) as rated by the factory.
High Performance Upgrade For YB5L-B, and 12N5-3B Battery Applications
The original factory supplied YB5L-B, and 12N5-3B batteries utilize flooded cell type construction and incorporate a vent tube. Because the Xtreme Volts XB5L-B is a sealed maintenance free battery with no vent tube it may be used as direct replacement for battery applications with the YB5L-B and 12N5-3B models. Battery dimensions and terminal layouts for the XB5L-B, YB5L-B, and 12N5-3B models are the same.
Drawbacks to the standard flooded cell YB5L-B Battery
The original factory supplied YB5L-B utilizes a flooded cell type construction and incorporates a vent tube. In sports bike applications the battery does not spend a lot of time in a vertical position. Because the conventional flooded cell battery has a vent tube, the battery being at anything other than vertical may result in acid leaking from from the battery through the vent tube, and usually onto expensive bike parts.
Solve the problem of leaking battery acid damaging your bike –
The Xtreme Volts version of the XB5L-B battery is produced using the newer AGM style construction, which is much better suited for spots bike applications. The Xtreme Volts version of the XB5L-B is constructed as a true factory sealed absorbed glass mat (AGM), maintenance free (MF), valve regulated lead acid battery (VRLA). What does this means to the battery user? First, factory sealed means the battery comes with the acid already installed. The battery is permanently sealed, so there is no acid to handle. Next, AGM construction incorporates glass mating packed between the plates. As acid is added to the battery the acid absorbs into the glass matting. This eliminates free floating acid in the battery, and eliminates the chance of acid leaking from the battery even when the battery case is damaged. The glass mat also acts as a dampener, or cushion against shock and vibration, making this battery well for rugged, pounding conditions, and vibrations as may be encountered with motorcycle applications. Third, it is maintenance free (MF). There is no need to check or maintain fluid levels in the battery. Finally, a valve regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery does not have a vent tube. Vapors produced by the battery are re-circulated back into the battery. This reduces corrosion around the battery, while also eliminating the venting of hazardous hydrogen gas under normal operating and charging conditions. In addition, the absence of a vent tube means no acid leaking from the battery.
