Exide Orbital Battery

Defender200tdi,

Can you advise which store you bought the pair of Exide Orbitals from?? I am currently looking for two of them myself - best price I have is $300ea or $600 for the pair.
Handbrakes not happy and I must say that the price is making me reconsider.

Thanks
Rokkitt

I got mine from Pirahna in dorset rd boronia (?), cost $260 each, exide wanted $360, but that was 4 years ago and their still going good:)

I called them as I found them mentioned in an earlier post; initially they wanted $385 for each battery - eventually I worked them down to $310 if I purchased both batteries together. I am suprised at the cost difference between outlets - some charge as much as $480 per battery!!
Seems to me that there is a huge markup on them and it may be just a case of calling the right people.
Looks like I won't be getting them - $600 is just too much for two batteries when I can get standard lead acid's for $250 a pair!!
