Good morning everyone,
Hopefully someone can give some suitable advice please?
When I went to start the Nippy earlier this morning, the battery was absolutely dead. It's been on charge and the charger says it's now fully charged. Unfortunately, there's not enough "go" in it to turn the engine so it won't start so I guess the battery is now defunct. It's been in for about 10 years so doesn't owe me anything.
I've looked to buy a replacement - a 501 / 17 which is a 117 Amp Hour battery so that I can run through the night if needed. Whislt these are available, apparently they can only now be delivered without any acid due to some legislation.
I hope somebody on here has some experience of how to sort this out please so that I can get a new battery and be up and running again in the near future please?
Best wishes,
Nick
