Gerry Posted November 14, 2020 Posted November 14, 2020 Hell everyone, just putting the vehicle's winter cover on, and won't use her now until February, but I realise I need a new battery come Spring! What have people used over here as a replacement battery, I'm not having much luck so far, and two companies I've phoned have absolutely no clue how to suggest one, batteryboys is one of them. It had an AC Delco PG80D23L when it came in last month but I can't seem to nail the replacement battery over here, and a couple I thought should work said not a good fit for the vehicle on their websites. I'm relying on you guys to get me going in March!! Thanks for any thoughts or comments about what you've selected. Gerry
Gerry Posted November 14, 2020 Author Posted November 14, 2020 Further to above the only ones I seem to favour are: YASA YBX3005 and the Enduroline 75Ah But of course I'm being swayed by the fact that the size of battery in there is very close to a 069 spec, and that AC Delco must've been a replacement at some stage. Your thoughts, and choices, would be most welcomed. Gerry
MonsterS Posted November 16, 2020 Posted November 16, 2020 I bought a bigger one. than what was in there. i'll get info and let you know tomorrow morning.
Gerry Posted November 26, 2020 Author Posted November 26, 2020 Thanks MonsterS, sure would be good to know what the experts think.
MonsterS Posted December 3, 2020 Posted December 3, 2020 We bought a slightly higher amp age one. Exide 450a battery from Tania batteries. sorry for the late reply.
Gerry Posted May 10, 2021 Author Posted May 10, 2021 Thanks everyone, especially MonsterS. I took your advice and phoned Tayna, the girl could not have been more helpful, and she sorted it within minutes, even down to the battery terminals as it had been replaced at some stage in Japan with a Canadian/ US battery. I would suggest if you have any concerns about which battery to buy then phone Tayna and spell out your needs. The replacement was pretty cheap, about £65 and was delivered next day, up and running within minutes and it hasn't let me down yet.
wjvh Posted May 11, 2021 Posted May 11, 2021 I also use Tayna for car, van and motorbike batteries. So far no probs.
