Default Re: Batteries for TDCi

Oh you did too cheers.

Woah the battery that came out was a 60Ah (shorter battery too) RACQ Premium it took the second provision for the clamp so, the Century 80Ah batt. is larger (rightly so) and used the first front clamp hole. Chug chug started up like a fire was put under her.

I took it off charge a couple of hours as it seemed to level out @ 13.6V and surface voltage of 13.2V. Strangely enough the battery saver didn't save the date/time, 9V battery was 9.1V so dunno what happened there. Easy enough to do, the phones were still saved as were the radio stations.

Oh the battery came with a vent tube but there's no way it can fit and still have clamp lined up, so didn't use it.

edit: Also that DIN75LHMF wouldn't have fitted the battery box doesn't allow for the extra height.
