Battery conditioner - where in UK

Jan 06, 2005 3 Replies

Hi All



Our MX5 struggles in winter through lack of use from time to time.



Where can I get a good battery conditioner to leave on all the time?



I ordered one from AirFlow early in December but had to cancel because they still cannot give a supply date.



Thanks in anticipation.

I use an Optimate for my thre bikes and MX5. For a little over £30 they're great value. Search Opimate on Google and you'll get the manufacturer and suppliers. Morien (Wales)

Hugh, If you're parking your MX5 in the dark I probably can't help,... but there are some interesting solar pannels that Maplin sell to leave on your dashboard - plugged into the Cigar Lighter. They trickle charge batteries.

My MX5's parked outside, so I'll get one if I find the battery isn't staying charged over the rest of winter. But I haven't tried using one yet, so I can't really comment on their effectiveness.

Hope that's some help,

Michael
