Need Some Help...

If it is only 6 months old I would have thought it is still in warrenty if you can find the receipt.

They don't know what you have been using it for. See if they will replace it.

Failing that I bought the below. Good batteries, light and powerful. Makes finding a home for it a lot easier.

I can vouch for that one, got mine last year and after the winter lay up of 5months my engine fired up 1st time

Light as a feather compared to a normal car battery too

Just check your not drawing current when the car isnt being used first though or your battery wont last no matter what type it is

Ya I think one of these is going to be the way forward. I double checked and the one I had only had 265 amp starting power compared to 360 amps that halfords say should be used for a 1.8 cvh... I'm struggling to really find any other alternatives that are small enough as my battery tray is only 260mm x 160mm (saturn grp one).

So how can I check if it's drawing current while not being used?
