recommend me a new battery

my yuasa yb16b battery has pretty much died its death so i need a new one. this battery is actually quite nice. its a bike battery that is 16ah and seems quite light and small. its to crank a 1.6 4age BT so has a high CR. what are others using that is small and light?





Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

Please read my ring story:

As above, Speak to Russ, his lithium range is pretty impressive and a definite weight saving nice and cheaply.

I can do Lithium Ion batteries with very similar cranking currents to the various redtops at very similar prices - weight savings vary from 4.5kg up to 13kg!! Around 5kg weight saving if comparing with bike lead acid battery
Just give me a ring if you want to discuss 07905 879407

Cheers Russ





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
