hi all

have 2 x Optima D34M ("blue top") deep cycle batteries (marine battery with extra terminals)

test fit them for a project for about a day, then decided not to go ahead

batteries are a bit over a month old, and am trying to recoup some cost :thumbsup:

have remainder of a 2 year warranty (about 23 months or so), just need to dig up the receipt

more info here:

and

they weigh 20kg each, so it's pretty much pick up only

R $270 each / I $300 each

RRP = $445

cheapest i can find is $325 plus shipping here: http://www.keoghsmarine.com.au/product_det...g_ProductID=509

these are still acid batterys arent they? so not suitable for in-cabin?

they're 100% sealed and maintenance free

this quote from the website leads me to believe in cabin use should be OK:

Nonspillable Maintenance Free

The OPTIMA® is spill-proof and maintenance free. Because of its completely sealed case, OPTIMA® batteries are extremely safe. Acid can't leak or spill, making them clean, user-friendly and environmentally sound. In addition, the maintenance free sealed case design eliminates the need to add water or clean terminals.

OPTIMA® Blue Top batteries are spill proof, so they can be mounted anyplace inside a boat or RV, in almost any position.

    • With the system, once you drive it for a bit, and before you turn the car off, does the car fix its date and time? When you say the date is wrong, what date does the vehicle think it is, and does it always show the same date? My thoughts from a process driven view is; The system may be defaulting to a standard start date/time. The main reason you'd typically see this occuring, is the system is losing its constant/backup power supply.   If its always defaulting to the same date/time at start up, and especially if it fixes itself while driving, I'd say either the non volatile memory has an issue, or the power supply to the volatile memory that stores this information.   The other thing I'd check is if there is anywhere in the system you can adjust the date and time from. If the date/time is still moving forward since it wished you happy new year, then it is 100% possible the system has just had a bit of data corruption occur, and you likely need to find a way to reset the date/time in the vehicle.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
