Re: Expert battery advice needed - Aixam Mega City
Posted: Thu Jan 24, 2013 11:48 am
Hi Greg,
Thanks for your thoughts. The inbuilt charger on the Aixam only looks at the terminal voltage of each of the 12, 12V batteries, not at individual cells so a new charger looks required. Considering the extra cost of Lithium over Lead and a new charger weighed against my maximum daily mileage I don't think it stacks up to swop to Lithium so I think I will do a straight replacement of my ABM 6-DM-76's.
Do you have any suggestions of a UK supplier of these or similar 73AH batteries?
Thanks. John
