Battery (HELP!)
« on: November 08, 2012, 12:29:31 am »
Hi   all,

I have freedom trolley that I run as van mount; I use golf trolley battery (pure drive 12v  22amp)

Was looking to get leisure battery like all you pros.

Seen this one on amazon
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Leisure-Battery-88ah-Caravan-Applications/dp/B003U3Z5ZE/ref=pd_sim_auto_12

My question is how do you connect up to pump?
What I mean is my current dying battery has small screws with ring connectors on, the battery on amazon seems it has bigger terminals on/ or is there 2?

Do you guys use crocidile clips to connect from battery to varistream/pump?
I have pure freedom smart charger; will that charge a leisure battery?

I haven't a clue and you can guess and need a battery pronto was gonna order another golf trolley batttery 12v 22amp but £45 for the bit extra I thought leisure battery?

HELP ;D
Any links to batteries and relavant connectors much appreciated ;)

Just use what ever size crocodile clips are needed.

Lee just pop into halfords or motor shop and you can buy terminal clamps for the battery ( like the ones on your car )
they are a universal fit put these on the batt and they have a hole with securing screw for the wire

Thanks very much for pic Darran,

Anyone know if you can get Battery from Halfords I'm sure I remember someone posting that but not make/model.

Looked in halfords yesterday and guy showed me 12v (360 amp :o) battery
I take it that's unsuitable.

People on here use 85-110 amp don't they?
Does anyone know shop/chain like halfords that sell leisure battery, so i can get at weekend?

Thanks Lee

i think thats the battery i have. i have had it for 2 years now, still good. mine was from ebay £58

get some quick release battery terminals off ebay. that way you can just pop the terminals off, and you know nothing is draining power.
