Lightweight car battery
Whats a good/cheap lightweight car battery?
Do many use motorbike batterys?
I am after sheding a few kilos after cage and fire extinguisher installment and amongst other ways, thought a lighter battery would help.
Car is stripped, not even heaters.

Ive got a Powervamp/OdysseyExtreme 25 (seems to be the same as the Varley Redtop).
There £70 which isnt cheap but if gives you a nice compact light reliable start.
Turn over a cold 1.9 cvh with not issues at all and gives a fair few restarts too.
Specification:

- 18 amp/hour capacity @ C20 rate
- 1800 peak momentary amps
- 680 amps cranking current for 5 seconds
- 220 amps CCA 30 seconds to 7.2v @ - 18c
- Dimensions; length 182mm, width 77mm, height 168mm
