Leisure Battery

Post by MrBeerBelly123 » Wed Aug 15, 2018 10:45 am

Morning,

We've just bought a Bongo for the first time and one of the first jobs we are looking at doing is having a leisure battery fitted.
We were thinking of getting a good sized leisure battery rather than a standard size.

Has anyone any recommendations at all please?

KIndest Regards
Darren

Your limited by the space under the bonnet on the nearside, most people can fit a 110AmpHr in a few have squeezed in a 120AmpHr, but it all depends on what tray you have / have fitted. Unless your fully aware of what is needed then a kit of parts is the best way to go have a word with Karl Chadwick or memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=14030 on here.

Be aware that some of the kits on eBay and the like are NOT recommended being positively dangerous and of atrocious quality.

Just did the same with our recently acquired Bongo, got a kit from Karl including the swap loom, excellent instructions included, well recommended.
