What does YTZ12S mean?

  • Y: Yuasa, the brand that created the naming system.
  • TZ: the high-performance AGM series, offering more starting current in a compact case. These batteries are always factory-activated.
  • 12: a size and power index, not the amp-hour rating: the YTZ12S has a capacity of 11 Ah at the 10-hour rate.
