Sealed wet batteries?

[Kristian]

Im looking at replacing my x4 135amp wet's due to them no longer holding charge, Ive had them 4years so they've done ok.

Has anyone had dealings with these sealed wet batteries? Im thinking of getting 4 of these, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170651912771&category=108845&_trksid=p5197.c0.m619

All thoughts welcome! many thanks Kristian.

I have just spoken to this company and told them I needed min 135 amp batteries and my cables had tags on the end which allow a 12mm bolt to be bolted through into top of battery. He suggested I buy one of his 85 amp AGM units because they are the only batteries they have of the same design!!

 

I also asked how I connect two heavy battery cables to one round battery post. The guy doesn't know.

 

Not very impressive. But they do appear to be cheap

Hi

 

I think the general consensus on here is to stick with wet battery's.

Beware, there are many battery's on sale that only differ by their labels.

At least they do give you weight, which is a good indicator between any battery - the heavier the better. But more Lead means more expensive.

Halfords, Ebay, most car accesory shops, chandlers etc etc.

Very common.

I think I paid about £3.00 each for mine.
