Let the weightloss program begin!
So, I want to replace the standard battery with a lightweight one. I'll probably go for one of these Red Top race batterys (Unless someone can recomend something better).
The question is, which one? How much cranking current will I need?
Ideally I'd go for the Red Top 15, which has a 14Ah capacity, 400A cranking power and weighs only 5Kg. BUT, I have no idea if this is sufficent to run my car.
Does anyone know the capacity, cranking power and weight of the standard battery (Ok I can weigh it sometime myself, but if you know then it'd save me a job)? I've looked on the battery itself and it doesn't say anything.
If the Red Top 15 wont do then which one would do you think?
Cheers
Ben
