Cold Cranking Ampere (CCA): A rating used in the battery industry to define a battery's ability to start an engine in cold temperatures.
- The maximum current that a fully charged battery can deliver at -18 °C (-0.4 °F) for 30 seconds while maintaining a voltage of at least 7.2 volts for a 12-volt battery.
- The higher the CCA rating, the greater the starting power of the battery.
RESERVE CAPACITY (RC): A battery industry rating that defines the battery's ability to power a vehicle with an inoperative alternator or fan belt.
- The rating is the number of minutes a battery at 26.7 °C(80 °F) can be discharged at 25 amps and maintain a voltage of 10.5 volts for a 12 volt battery.
- The higher the reserve rating, the longer your vehicle can operate should your alternator or fan belt fail.
