Frequently Asked Questions

What does 34/78DT mean on a car battery?
A 34/78DT battery is a dual-terminal battery that combines Group 34 and Group 78 sizes. It features both top posts and side terminals, allowing it to fit a wider range of vehicles that require either terminal type.

Can I replace a Group 34 or Group 78 battery with a 34/78DT?
In most cases, yes. A 34/78DT battery is designed as a versatile replacement for vehicles that use either Group 34 or Group 78 batteries, as long as the size and terminal configuration match your vehicle’s requirements.  The front posts make the battery slightly wider so it’s important to confirm your available space.

What does “DT” stand for?
“DT” stands for dual terminal, meaning the battery includes both standard top posts and side terminals for flexible installation.

Do I need both terminals to use a 34/78DT battery?
No — you only need to use the terminal type your vehicle requires. The additional terminals simply provide flexibility for different applications.

Why can’t flooded batteries be shipped?
Flooded lead-acid batteries contain liquid acid, which is considered hazardous for transport.  For more details, see our shipping policy.
