QUICK..Who recently bought a new battery....not a Lithium one...
« on: September 25, 2012, 09:56:59 AM »
Ok,
need to get a battery like yesterday...who bought one online recently, I am concerned only with a conventional battery, sealed, lead acid or AGM ONLY. No need to give me the Lithuim info, I have all that.....

LOOKING FOR THE WEB DEALER/address, MODEL/number, AND COST, along with how long it took to get to you......
Pleeeeeze. ;)


Thanks in advance....

I believe I bought a Yuasa at Wal Mart.  Could be mis-remembering though.

I bought an Ever Start at Walmart. I believe the model # is ES14BS. Its still good, but I don't think I would do it again. I believe it has a 30 day warranty. There is no mention of the warranty period on the box or the battery. I found information on the battery warranty at the Walmart website.

Did you actually install one of those in your C14?
Have to ask, because the dimensions seem bigger than the factory battery, which was a tight fit....also, the polarity on the battery pictured, is reverse of the C14 configuration.... :o

thanks anyways, as I noted I picked one up, it's on the way, will be here friday.

I recently put a motobatt battery in mine, it was $68 shipped, on amazon.com. AGM is the way to go, the lithiums are failing left and right.

I was thinking that there was a company making an 18 amp hour battery that would fit our Connies. Was it Odyssey?

Did this battery fit or did you need to make some modifications?

Thanks

I bought a FOB battery recently.

I asked the same thing above, and got no response.....I would not suggest being the guinea pig....the battery I noted was shipped and at my p.o. box less than 72 hours from the time I hung up the phone.... ;)

I was just wondering. The extra cc amps and amp hours would be nice if it fits. It seems pretty tight in the battery area with the stock one. My battery is over 3 years old with about 45 K on it so I am thinking about getting a new one before the winter.
