Fire Power John Deere Gator Battery CTX16CL-B Sealed (2005-2016)

The Fire Power CTX16CL-B is a sealed, maintenance-free AGM battery in the YB16CL-B size for John Deere Gator utility vehicles and older Kawasaki Mule models. It comes filled and pre-charged from the manufacturer, so there is no acid to handle and no electrolyte to check.

It replaces the conventional YB16CL-B with a sealed AGM design, which removes the routine maintenance that comes with a wet battery on a work machine.
