[Jem]

There is no way my car is going to be moving from my parking spot for quite a bit,So im a bit stuck i cant just go out and get one so im going to have to order something online,So what trickle charger is good for a derv battery?

Im thinking about this one http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ctek-CTE-XS3.../dp/B000RHWCNY

Sounds a good one, wont fry the battery by the look of it.

[Jem]

Yes thats what i was worried about dont fancy frying anything....Its got a cut of so no problems there.

I only need one to top up the battery as my battery is not even a month old.

So just to be sure that will be ok for this battery

I've got a new Exide on my derv, and I've got a charger that cuts out when its charged up.

Your one looks like it covers all the bases, think I would be happy with it.

Like most things you get what you pay for, its not a cheap one, so should be OK.

Suppose you could ask the supplier of the battery for their thoughts.

[Jem]

Thanks,I think i shall get the charger.

I recently bought one of thoses through eBay, it was ?38 but the seller has now increased the price to ?49!

It only arrived today so I don't know how good it is.

I got it for our MGF.

Cheers

Just need a extension reel now as my pathetic reel isn't long enough to reach my car.

Will any cheap reel do?

I bought one of these, only paid ?10 but they are back up to ?20.

No need for extension leads either and you can fit it on the back of the sun visor and wire it internally to the battery.

I've got one of those on my maestro as it is parked where I can't supply electricity.
