I will see your 8 amps and raise you 25..

Ditto.

Went looking for a charger a while ago. Battery shop staff kept mentioning the Ctek stuff. Managed to find a new/secondhand/unused MXS25 on Gumtree for $270.

For keeping track of battery wear in my taxis, I bought a new Midtronics MDX-700 on eBay for $A300. The seller did a crap job on the listing, so no-one else bid. Useful gadget - prints out the CCA rating of each battery and I can monitor how they wear over time.

It's overkill for car stuff, but the price was right...

Pretty sure parliament has passed the law to tax overseas purchases now!

I'm still going to buy OS when the tax comes into play as it's the principle of the matter...

Not sure when Aus turned into a Republic but anyhow!!!
