Andy Flexney Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 why "heavy duty"? I believe the 18ACR produces about 40 Amp and you will rarely use all of that. I have been driving the TR3 for years with one in and never had any problems with flat batteries. Yes they need repairing every 2 to 3 years but at £15 a time or £50 for a rebuilt exchange unit ot an awful lot.AndyF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
