Battery sizes

[V]

(In case anyone else is finding problems finding a suitable battery)

I've just changed my battery which seems to a smaller battery than the already smaller imports than the UK'ers along with the smaller terminals.
I dont know when they changed the size again.....

It also fits in its own little padded surround which the main cables are fixed too.

240w x 200h x 120d
Its about the size of x2 PP3's

45ah
400a cold crank

I had a bit of trouble finding a decent battery to fit (Sealed, Silver Calcium (which most seemed to be) 5yr warranty)

Found this one.
Trane T11 (054 056)
106H60L SMF
with a magic eye

I did find Halfrauds the most expensive place to buy from though.
All the independents were at least £20 cheaper than them.
Most were about £50, Halfrauds £70.

I belive the 'normal' Jap ones accept the Halfords HCB005.

Good Info Steve.

Mines died.

Struggled to find another one off the shelf easily.
But got a Duracell Advance DA45 with 5yr warranty.

My battery is the much smaller Type 156 with T3 small terminals.

Eurocar parts £55 inc VAT.

That's a reasonable price !
