raymond90 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Hi, im in need of a new battery for my defender and ive read good things on this forum about numax batteries so i was looking at either of these 3: http://www.tayna.co....24MF-P3126.html http://www.tayna.co....-Amp-P7632.html http://www.tayna.co....31MF-P3694.html Which 1 would you guys recomend? I use my jeep for pay and play days and other off roading but no serious competitions. The jeep is an 89 defender 90 with a disco 300tdi and a 100amp alternator and a goodwinch tds 9.5 winch plus 2 large spot lights. Does anyone know if these can be mounted on there side cause im planning putting in heated seats out of a mondeo i have lying around and making a small hatch in the side of the seat box to get to the terminals? whats your opinions? think the 3rd 1 is a bit ott for what i need?

western Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I'd go for the biggest 110ah capacity one out of those 3. it states 'sealed lead acid' type, but does not say if it's a wet or dry [agm] battery, best to ask before ordering the suppliers should be able to advise.

steve200TDi Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Si sells Numax batteries at X-Eng. I think they're the second one down in your list. Give him a ring to discuss your options. I have one of Si's batteries and it's been very good. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty_wingnut Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 talk to Si and it's not a jeep lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roguevogue Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I compete with a pair of Numax from X-eng. I have found them to be extremely good value. NO! you CAN NOT fit these batteries on their side, they are a wet cell battery and will leak acid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc1187 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I have two of the second (cvx-1000) batteries on my disco, excellant batterys. Bought from the place you've linked to, cheap, quick delivery and excellant service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymond90 Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 talk to Si and it's not a jeep lol Sorry my landy. its just what we tend to call them where im from Thanks for clearing up that they cant be mounted on there side. So what i think i'll do is go for the 3rd one as ralph says, since i dont need to run 2 batteries or a split charge system as i dont intend to enter challenge events. And instead of making a hatch to get to the battery i think it will be easier to use anderson connectors mounted to the seat box if i need to jump it and just have to take the seat out for the rare occasion that i need the battery out. I was just mainly wondering what the differences were between the first 2 as they both have the same figures but i think the 1 bigger battery will be the solution. raymond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
