I need to new battery for my Haflinger; the existing unbranded one is 35 amp/hour, and is labelled "270 cold crank amps". Both terminals are along the same long side, with the negative terminal to the left when they are closest to you. Dimensions (mm) - 250 (L) x 175 (H*) x 135 (D). (*= excluding terminal height).
Does anyone have any recommendations for capacity / dimensions / type, or perhaps a good supplier in the UK?
TIA

Julian,
If you are anywhere near Pavilion Batteries in Hove, they would be my choice when I need a new battery. They have lots in the warehouse so you could pick and choose a suitable one.

Re: What battery?
I am a big fan of gell batteries in these trucks. They tend to more like a marine battery with higher cranking amps and don't leak like regular lead acid ones.
Optima is one of the more common brands in my area.
