ALF Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 Where is the cheapest place around Lanarkshire to get a decent size car battery? The 1 i run my ETS off just now is 6-7 yrs old and isnae holding a good charge anymore (it will be fine for the shorter races but wouldnae like to trust it for an overnight shot) Or does anybody have a half decent wan laying about? Cheers Alan

square_peg Posted May 1, 2013 Report Posted May 1, 2013 alan, when you get a battery invest in a solar charger from flea bay £10--£25 when you are not using the ets you can "help " the battery it wont charge it from flat , but it will put life into it. you can leave the solar charger on the battery even when you have ets on.
