    D4 Battery Photos

    Hi all, I finally have some photos of my second battery.
    Below is with the plastic cover on

    Photo of battery in place

    Another angle

    New position for horn

    The battery is an Optima. Notice the terminal points on the side as well as the top.
    Hope this helps others.

    That looks clean and great... what did that cost to move the junk out of the box and put the battery there? Is this also the same kit you shown me before?

    Dorko, I'll find out the cost tomorrow and get back. When I had the battery done, I had a heap of other things done as well and received the one bill.
    Everthing apart from the horn remains under the plastic cover. It is the same kit but different battery.
    Stig0000, I am told by my landrover dealer that my warranty is not effected because all the important stuff is still protected.

    Hi Drivesafe, the new one is 55 Amp hour. The old one (which turned out to be a dud) was 80 Amp hour. However, the new one is supposed to be far superior. My auto elec tells me that it should run my fridge for 2 days without charging it.

    Hi Disco4SE,

    Do you have the actual product number of the battery ?

    D4 Battery

    Thanks for the great shots. I was told by one converter that he puts the extra battery on opposite side in gap up front as he does for Disco 3. (not in cover) Any comment on that? Look forward to knowing who did this for you and cost approx ( About $850 quoted by my guy)

    Thanks Disco4SE, a better battery to get is the Optima D34, there is no additional number after the 34.

    This battery is also a 55Ah battery and fits exactly the same but only has terminals on the top.

    This battery can be perfectly secured using the genuine Land Rover battery Bracket and bolts and there is plenty of room to use conventional battery terminal clamps to connect the cable to the battery.
