Yuasa Battery, Inc. has expanded the vehicle applications for its GYZ Series product line with the GYZ16H, designed to fit the same footprint as the Yuasa YTX14 and YTX14-BS batteries. With an additional 4 amp-hours (Ah) and 40 cold cranking amps (CCA) of power, the GYZ16H allows the addition of high-power accessories such as winches, lights, GPS and audio systems.
Initially designed as original equipment for ATV/UTV applications, it is used as the OE battery for most Honda Rubicon ATVs and was recently chosen as the OE battery for Honda Pioneer 1000 UTVs. The GYZ16H also will appeal to motorcycle owners where extra starting power and vibration resistance is beneficial. The Yuasa GYZ16H features absorbed glass mat (AGM) construction, and is factory-activated and maintenance-free.
By incorporating taller plates that provide more surface area, GYZ Series batteries are able to offer significantly increased power compared to traditional AGM batteries of the same size. Yuasa GYZ AGM batteries also have a lower self-discharge rate, an important feature for motorcycles and ATVs that are stored over the winter.
The GYZ16 is available with both H and HL terminal polarity configurations to fit a wide variety of application. Inside the battery, protective separator material and enhanced active material are designed to withstand vibration and prolong battery life.
