Charging QP battery in situ

[Gazcw]

Cheers. Looks obvious now and makes me look a total numpty! Tomorrows job!

Apologies but calling a Yuasa battery a Yasuya may have already done that.

Aldi have their trickle chargers in again btw.

Not if you speak fluent Japanese, the 'ua' is rendered with 'asu'.

However I don't speak Japanese and I'm talking bollox.....

My came with a ctek charger from new with connections already on the battery, just plug it in. I leave it connected at all the time when not using for more than a week or so and all through winter.

Same here.....well before I sold my QP anyway.

Quick question, what's the thread of the nuts? 6mm dia. I think....

Thats not a quick question. Thats a go out in the cold, strip the battery down and measure with a vernier gauge question, which for you sir I have done. The neg connection is on a 6mm. The pos is on 8mm but there is a free 6mm too. My connectors are 10mm from memory.

thanks for that, esp. since I don't have a vernier!

And the thread will be metric presumably?

This is mine - it came with the charger

I also have a ctek and is ideal - have the connector permanently attached and it sits just into the boot - two second job to connect up the charger and all done - on whenever the cars at home on the drive and complete piece of mind!

I also rely on, and trust Ctek.

Have it all hardwired neatly in the boot.
