Numax CXV - much much more capacity than an optimax, less cca though but much much cheaper.

Our local caravan/motorhome retailer stocks Numax. Saved me travelling far, saved me postage, and they were £10 less than anywhere I found on the web

Caravan outlet as said above or local battery supplier or even a chandlers/boatyard if theres one near you. Mail order is a rubbish way to buy batteries. That try

These are an equivalent non branded version of the Numax, I payed less from my local battery wholesaler for the Numax but if you don't have access to one.

Excellent price, I was directed to these batteries via Xeng as they sell them, and I saved myself some money on their price so was quite happy. i'm also pretty much housebound just now as well so nipping to the local places arent an option just now!
Having said that, I doubt I could get them cheaper locally, we don't have the level of competition round here!!
