BEC Battery
Rather unsurprisingly, the battery in the Indy has died in the 8 years since it was last used.
I was using a 12ah Bosch motorbike battery, but looking on ebay, things seem to have got more complicated. There are li-ion batteries, gel batteries
and the normal lead acid batteries.
I'm not really worried about weight or size, but I'd like a battery that doesn't either kill the electrics in the car, nor die after
6 months.
Any recommendations?

If you're not worried about size or weight I run a small car like a mini battery in my Bec.

As above,a small car battery gives you a bit more back up.

Thanks Paul, too long, and I won't bore you with the reasons!
The plan is, get some rear arches on order, get the wishbones off and away to be re-powder coated or painted. Then see if the engine starts! Luckily
ebay still seems to have plenty of big zed engines for not a lot of cash.
After that, general fluid change and whatever else that needs doing, hopefully get her MOT'd around Easter?
