A sealed lead acid battery having a thermostat or thermal protector as a protector of battery from heat is provided, which comprises a battery container comprised of cell chambers each containing a cell element. A terminal box is provided at the end of the battery container. The battery container is provided at the end thereof with the terminal box. The thermostat or thermal protector is mounted in the terminal box to be highly sensitive to heat, thus protecting the lead acid battery from heat. In the terminal box are inserted a pair of charge and discharge terminals and the thermostat or thermal protector, so that safe positioning of the thermostat or thermal protector and good heat conduction from the cell element to the thermostat or thermal protector are secured.
