Strengths

What Camel does well

  1. 01

    Original supplier to Chinese carmakers

    The battery in a new Chinese car is often a Camel, so the replacement drops into the same tray and clamps.

  2. 02

    EFB and AGM for start-stop

    Newer Chinese crossovers with start-stop are covered in the correct technology.

  3. 03

    Large-scale production

    A high-volume manufacturer with a broad size list in both DIN and Asian formats.

About Camel

Who makes Camel batteries and what they are known for

Camel Group is based in Hubei province and is one of the largest car battery manufacturers in China. It supplies original batteries to Chinese carmakers and to joint-venture factories in China, and exports widely. As MG, Geely, Changan and Jetour have grown in the UAE, Camel has become a like-for-like replacement for the battery those cars arrive with.

Camel in UAE heat

The conventional Camel range is sealed and maintenance-free with calcium alloy plates, and the start-stop range comes as EFB and AGM. Many newer Chinese cars have turbocharged engines in tightly packed bays, which run hot around the battery. We check that any battery cover or insulation is put back after fitting, because it protects the battery from that heat.

Battery types

Car battery types: flooded, EFB, AGM and 12V lithium

The technology has to match what the car was built with. Here is what each type is and which cars use it.

TypeHow it is builtUsed inStart-stop

Flooded (maintenance-free)

Standard

Lead plates in liquid acid, sealed top, often calcium alloy grids.

Most Japanese, Korean and older cars without start-stop.

No

EFB

Enhanced flooded

Flooded design with reinforced plates and a fleece layer that holds the active material in place.

Entry-level start-stop cars and cars with higher electrical demand.

Yes

AGM

Absorbent glass mat

Acid held in glass-fibre mats. Sealed, spill-proof, fast to recharge.

Start-stop with energy recovery, most modern German cars, boot-mounted batteries.

Yes

12V lithium

Low-voltage Li-ion

A compact lithium pack with its own electronics in place of a lead-acid battery.

Some newer EVs and performance cars. Usually a dealer or workshop job.

Varies

Rule of thumb: replace like for like. An EFB car can move up to AGM, but an AGM car should never be fitted with a standard battery.

Car died at a petrol station off Sheikh Zayed Road. I sent the pin and said which side of the road I was on. The technician tested the battery first, showed me the reading, then swapped it. Card payment on the spot.

Basement P3 in the Marina, low ceiling, no chance for a tow truck. He came down with a booster and a tester. Turned out the battery only needed a jump, so that is all he did. Honest.

Aarav S.Al Quoz

Needed an AGM for a start-stop car. They asked for a photo of the old battery label before coming, so the right one was in the van. Registered it to the car as well.

Maria D.Jumeirah Village Circle

Evening traffic made it later than the first estimate, but they messaged to say so. The fitting itself was quick and he checked the charging voltage before leaving.

Pickup would not crank at the yard. Battery tested fine, the terminal was loose and corroded. He cleaned and tightened it and did not try to sell me a battery.

Paid with Tabby, which helped that week. Old battery was taken away, the new one came with the warranty card filled in. Would call them again.

السيارة ما اشتغلت الصبح في موقف البناية. أرسلت الموقع ورقم الطابق على الواتساب، والفني فحص البطارية قبل ما يبدلها وشرح لي النتيجة. شغل مرتب.

رجعت من السفر والسيارة واقفة شهر كامل. الفني جاء للبيت، اشترك البطارية وفحصها، وقال إنها تحتاج تبديل وأعطاني ورقة الضمان. تعامل محترم.

اتصلت الساعة 2 الفجر والرد كان سريع. عطوني وقت تقريبي للوصول قبل ما يتحرك الفني، وبدل البطارية في الشارع قدام البيت. شكراً لكم.

Questions

Camel battery questions

Short answers to what drivers ask before and during a battery call-out.

Read all questions and answers

Is Camel the original battery in MG or Geely cars?

Camel supplies original batteries to many Chinese carmakers, so it is common to find one under the bonnet of a new Chinese car. The supplier can differ by model and year. We match the replacement to the size, type and rating printed on the battery in your car.

Do Chinese cars need a special battery?

No. They use standard DIN or Asian case sizes. What matters is the technology: many newer Chinese models have start-stop and need EFB or AGM. Fitting a conventional battery in those shortens its life and can trigger warning messages on the dashboard.

Can a Camel battery be used in a Japanese or Korean car?

Yes, where the size, terminal side and rating match. Camel makes Asian-format batteries as well as DIN ones. We confirm fitment for your model before bringing the battery, and the technician checks the charging voltage once it is fitted.

What warranty comes with a Camel battery from 800MyBatt?

Batteries fitted by 800MyBatt carry a warranty of up to 24 months, depending on the battery. The technician states the term for the exact battery before fitting and records it on the invoice. Delivery and fitting at your location are free.
