Help shipping a battery from America to Ireland

Mr. 'H'

I'm having a problem getting a fresh battery for my car. This is the exact battery:



Problem is, nobody here seems to stock it (it's a 6 volt). Sure - I've tried all the usual suspects here and in the UK. Before anyone suggest I switch over to 12 volt (:eek:) I just want to check if anyone is shipping back from the States to here?

They won't ship this battery, even dry....

Thanks for this... that battery is indeed 6 volt but is a is slightly different in dimensions. It might fit. I'll contact them to see if it would be work.

MR H

I've sent you a pm as regards shipping from the US

Mr. 'H'

Finally, got a resolution on this.... got this shipped in today from Optima UK.



It's a 6v and the non spill is great to have.... I reckon it will fit neatly in, and even though it's the size of 3 cans of beer it packs a punch.... 815 CCAs, which is what I need for my purposes.

Thanks guys, and a special thanks to Mustang68 for the help and giving me the "push" to finally get this!
