I just spent a couple of hours researching what new battery to get for my Disco. Mine's been struggling with the cold weather and I've had enough of jump starting it!

I wanted something that would cope as I add bits to my standard Disco, so would one day work in a dual battery setup and power all the lamps, winches, fridges, kettles, ovens, cranes and anything else I decide to hang off it.

But in the meantime I don't really want to be spending too much money.

After quite a bit of searching on here and other forums I started to like the look of the Numax CXV batteries. After a bit of hunting I found the UK distributor and got an absolute bargain, well chuffed. Should be delivered tomorrow.

Numax CXV24MF
Specifications
12V 86Ah, Cold Start Marine Cranking Amps: 1000A (equiv about 7-800)
Deep-cycle & Starting
Sealed Lead Acid

500 Cycles

3 Years Guarantee

Dimensions(mm)
257 x 172 x 220 (incl. terminals)

Dual terminals - I like that bit!
Integral state of charge indicator
Comfortable reinforced carrying handles
Anti-flashback safety labyrinths
Low self discharge rate giving long shelf life
Full three year warranty

He asked me not to post what I paid for on here as prices are constantly fluctuating, but it was considerably less than anyone else was selling 'em for, and that was delivered.

Hope this helps anyone hunting for their new battery...!

If you want the contact details PM me.

Just fitted one of these, and it started in sub zero after a week of not moving. Well impressed !!

Cheers

am i missing out on something here ?

on the basis that i generally only have a battery out of it's containing box/holder/straps to replace it (say once every 6 years) - what's the point of it having "comfortable reinforced carrying handles"
