Any other manufacturers/models worth considering?

I thought about Odysseys, but remembered the size issue and, since I can't get to the battery box to measure, don't really feel comfortable ordering them on faith.
I'll definitely check out the Sonnenscheins and MKs, though.

Gnomatic: "As far as chargers, consider the ZXD2400 from shirley." Thanks for this tip! I've started to read the fascinating thread on this, but I'm guessing I can't use Shirley's charger through the normal three-pin socket on the joystick pod? Looks like I'll need to wire Anderson clips directly to the batteries.

It looks like these are the ones I should be considering: http://www.ezmobilitybattery.com/mk-bat ... 4sldg.html Based on your experience with the V6, do these look right? The V6 user guide says 73ah, but I figured 74ah was close enough (since MK don't make a 73ah battery).

No, you can certainly charge through the joystick pod @12A. BM made a video of the charger doing precisely that!

It makes an excellent, versatile charger.

Strangely, in charger mode as current flow drops the fan speed does drop some until it goes to float, when the fan goes once again full tilt. Not the best programming.
The average price of a litre of fuel in the UK is now around £1.20 for petrol and £1.29 for diesel.
