Check out this helpful guide with step by step instructions on how to safely keep your battery free of corrosion.

Absorbed glass-mat (AGM) technology technology is a type of fiberglass separator used in some lead-acid batteries, providing a durable, nonspillable design with high vibration resistance. Our premium AGM batteries are among our most popular for their reliable starting power, faster recharging and plenty of reserve capacity.

With robust power delivery, AGM batteries are performance-grade, ideal for vehicles with high-demand electrical and plug-in accessories or those that feature start-stop technology, both of which require a lot of battery power. Today's power-hungry vehicles require high-performance batteries to meet their high electrical demands. This type of battery produces enough energy to power everything from extra lights to a winch.

Non-AGM batteries are standard batteries built for vehicles with minimal power demands. Like AGM batteries, they are lead-acid batteries, but they do not feature the same nonspillable design. These types of batteries are generally more affordable than AGM batteries and still deliver reliable battery performance.

Factory battery sizes (or BCI Group #) refer to the physical dimensions of the battery. The ideal battery for a Jeep Wrangler is either a group size 34, H6 or H7 battery, but this varies depending on the vehicle's manufacturing year and engine size.

The Jeep Wrangler is a versatile vehicle, but choosing the right battery can be challenging. For 2012–2018 models, the standard battery is the H6 (except for 2017 models, which may use an H7). For Wranglers built after 2018 with start-stop technology, the H6 is the correct battery, regardless of engine type (3.6L V6, 3.0L V6 or 2.0L). If your post-2018 Wrangler does not have start-stop technology, the H7 is the appropriate choice.

Choosing the correct battery size is essential for your vehicle's safety and proper operation. A battery with the wrong size may lead to poor battery connections or not enough amps to meet the power demands of your Jeep Wrangler. If you are unsure what battery is right for your needs, reach out to your Interstate Batteries dealer.

Installing a battery can be intimidating if you are unfamiliar with the process. And while vehicle performance has become increasingly efficient, hood space has decreased, making battery replacement more challenging.
