Batteries for leccy fencing sheep

[Pieces_of_Eight]

Worth checking Halfords & GoOutdoors for leisure battery specs & prices.

Definitely get a small solar panel (about £80), we never charge our battery from March to November

Halfords?
We get the interim car service done there, to take advantage of their ‘brakes for life’ scheme on a car doing 30k miles a year. They quoted £120 for a new battery, which I had delivered from Tayna the next day for £60!

Or perhaps a bigger solar panel and a charge controller

Halfords still look dear.
Go outdoors is a good price in that sale, shame they don't do delivery.

That's if go outdoors can come up with the goods

cheaper than mv..and open till 8pm...Halfords isnt bad price actually and I like to give them some business as I get car parts/ filters etc. there, Very useful to be able to pop in of an evening.

Cheaper than mvf isn't difficult! Tayna are about 2/3 price of mvf for exact same battery.

I need to get new batteries sorted now all the sheep are behind three lines of electric fencing. These are the batteries I have at present. What size are they? I don't understand these things. And is there a better option?
