buying a new battery for my cossie.any recomendation as the last one i brought was shit

 

duracell???

 

Optima yellow top

 

 

no stop my fookin side are splitting.........NOT

 

Cheer up mate was only having a laugh.....

Bosch make very good car batteries

 

I put a silver exide 097 on mine after years of starting problems.

All sorted there and then!

If the cossie isn't used much, get the best battery you can - cos finding the bloody thing wont start every time you use it is

 

kinda have the same problem with my fiesta, never use it and the battery goes flat, i try to charge it a couple of times a year but eventually battery dies.

Would a gel cell be happy to sit there for a year with no charge, then charge it for a day or so. And vrooommm ?

And what's the expected life of a gel cell ?

 

roughly 18 months but ive seen them last 6months to 6years

 

That's shit, then it's cheaper for me to change the normal battery every 3 years about the time it will die, lol.

 

no probs mate that wot the wink on the end is for

 

buy a battery trickle charger

i sometimes dont start my car for a month or so,,, but when i do to go ti,, it always fires straight into life

 

I sometimes don't open my garage door for 6 months, so not sure i want an electric device running there all the time

 

can you put a trickle charger on a new battery?
