[Request] Sealed lead acid batteries

Capt'n Midnight

I'm looking for a few 12V batteries about 7Ah to 17Ah near Dublin

Here's what I found

http://www.donberg.ie/descript/y/yuaan712.htm - € 21.90 ex vat (Donegal)

http://www.pcsource.ie/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=278251&osCsid=61abac74b555544b53988ff4e262a823 € 127 inc vat :rolleyes:

http://lawnmowers-plus.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=116&osCsid=be23aeba886e74f85852340b581869aa €25 + VAT , OT Isn't it a legal necessity to mention VAT if you are dealing with retail customers ? Since I had to go through a registration process before I could see if there was VAT, I'm trés narked with them now..

Is there anywhere else ?

They're not in Dublin, or even in Ireland for that matter, but I've had good experiences with eurobatterie.com for the more "obscure" batteries before. They appear to have what you're looking for.

Ta, they aren't obscure, they are the most common size of sealed lead acid I've seen.

By "obscure" I meant not your average run-of-the-mill batteries you could buy almost anywhere. Since I've never been in the market for sealed lead-acid batteries, i've no idea what is common and what isn't. In my case it was some non-standard sized tagged NiMh cells for replacing in an existing battery pack.

well I suppose they aren't run of the mill for joe public
thanks again
