12V Battery suitable for Chummy battery box...
#1
Can anyone recommend a 12V battery that will fit straight into a standard Chummy battery box please?

The space I have id w 190mm x d 180 mm x 220 mm.

Many thanks.

I've had a lot of success with a Sonnenschein GF 12 25 AG battery, Ruairidh. 12 volt gel battery from a golf cart or a mobility scooter. 28Ah cranking which isn't that much but fine for a 6v starter. The one in my Trials Chummy I fitted in 2007. Never charged it up. Never even took it out of the car. When I sold the car in January this year it was still performing as well as it did in 2007. It's length is a nats longer than you quote but others have got them into a Chummy battery box without a problem. Got one in the Ulster as well. Fitted in 2013 and still doing its job without recharging or any other attention.

There is a 12 volt battery the same size as the 6 volt for some foreign car which I've used for the last 4 years. I will have to extract it to find it's make and model number.

Having spoken to Steve recently I have fitted an AVON  ADC12-42EV  which can be fitted on its side . Just depends on your connections.
I turned up a couple of  brass posts to retain the standard battery terminals.
A local battery store got one in a couple of days ,same price as Tayna.

Very helpful, unfortunately both are too tight for the space I have available. Thank you however.

If it can start a large bike with lots of compression would this work?

My Ulster has what I think is a standard Chummy battery box.  I have a Yuasa 12N24-3 battery of 21Ah which is 186mm long x 125mm wide by 185mm deep including the terminals.  I think it is of a type fitted to a large Moto Guzzi bike.  It copes very well.
