Default Lightweight Battery - Odyssey PC680 - plus Lightweight Battery Bracket

Lightweight Battery - Odyssey PC680 - plus Lightweight Battery Bracket

I bought this in September this year. The terminals were not including with the battery, so I had to order them at extra cost. Altogether they cost £ 136.00

Battery £ 100.00, Terminals £ 14.00, Bracket £ 22.00

My intention was to fit it into the MC, but due to my time and lack of patience, I gave up and re-fitted my previous battery.

The battery has been in the car, but the bracket has not been fitted or had holes drilled etc, so is like new, as is the battery. To fit the bracket correctly, the battery box needs to be removed, holes drilled, spaces fitted, bolted or screwed on, re-fitted etc, too much trouble for me !

You don't say how much so I'll make you an offer of £70 for the lot delivered

My logic, I can get the lot for just over £100 delivered with 12 month warranty (I know becuase I shopped around for one this summer).

Normally I would not offer more than 50% second hand but based on these being new I'll offer £70 delivered (to Liverpool).

I think thats a fair offer and so I'm happy to make it an open offer. If anyone is happy to pay more then thats fine by me and I stand aside ;-)

PM me if you accept and I'll send you my details. I'm happy to pay up front by paypal.

How much lighter is this over normal batteries? You mention drilling, is this into the boot floor?

Dimensions

12v 16ah 220CCA

Length (mm) – 185

Width (mm) - 79

Total Height (mm) – 170

Weight (Kg) - 7

The terminals were a separate order and are needed. The bracket needs to be attached to the right hand side wall of the battery box, with a few mm's gap in between. So, it either involves drilling holes through the bracket and side wall of battery box or some sealant or strong bonding tape. I was going to pack it out with foam ! It is a small battery and looks lost in the box, about 3-4 would be the same as normal one. You can check these out on Ebay, but the terminals are not included and were a problem to get. The bracket fits snug and tight around the battery. So, it is personal choice I suppose.
