Under a ton for an Optima red top is a good price

Whilst its a good price its more than double a standard battery and having had optimas in the past i think they are over priced for what you get!

Never having used them i can't comment on the quality or performance of them. I, like you, simply stick to HD from agri suppliers. I was Merely pointing out a competitive price.

Hang on..............Don't you have a spare battery at the moment Smo :wink: .
Sorry to see the state of your truck. Hope you get better soon

Hehe, i would have a spare battery but the insurance company are keeping my landy "safe" until we settle up!

I run 2 yellow top as vehicle batterys and a 110amp leisure for auxillary's night heater etc... This lot give me 1500amps cold cranking on the yellow top's alone 8)  8)

TDi90:
thanks guys, going to jump her, then check if there is charge coming from the alternator to the battery to check if it is the alternator or the battery. i thought i had a good battery on mine, (BOSCH SILVER) but.... it failed to get my landy started...

Rob110:
Dont forget to check your earths!!!

Most probably is a dead battery but to check its not your earth, run a jump lead from the negative of the battery to the engine block and try again.

Dave:
Make sure the alternater belt is not loose this can draw charge from the battery instead of charging it. I got a battery from craddocks 90amph and i think it was 875 cranking amps 40 somthing pounds. That was a landrover battery. Cold killed the old one.
