Thread: Disco Series 2 CAT Battery

Hi,

Just rang the CAT dealer $133 for the 1000 CCA and $3.50 for the terminals, 1000 CCA should spin her over.

Coupled with my auxillary battery when winching we should have some grunt there as well.

Cheers

Slight high jack sorry.

So what crank does the TD5 battery need to be rated at?

The one in mine at the moment is 750CCA

More the better i figure

Td5 manual states a 110 Amp/hr battery but I think thats to cover from base model to the full HSE spec. I've certainly no trouble with the 100Ah 825CCA CAT in my base model D2a.

How many amp hrs is the 1000CCA? Mine has had 2 dodgy start mornings this winter.
When mine is up for replacement I may be able to wangle a deal with Westrac if a few of you WA boys want one.
Wont do anything about it till I need one,but Im hoping that the Shire gets a better deal than the public.Should be able to use a shire order no and pay cash on their a/c.
Will yell out when Im looking at getting one.

Hi Andy,
looked on the PDF the 1000 CCA is 90 amp hr @20 hours opposed to the others 850 CCA which is 100.

Can any one advise what this figure does?

Cheers

Hi Andy

Just starting to get sluggish turnover on my D2 so charged it up and checked the reading and 4 hours later the level had dropped from 13 to 10, so I guess I will be in the market for a new battery, do still reckon CAT is the way to go?

Read your earlier post about the headlight upgrade you fitted from Drivesafe and wondered how difficult it was to fit and was it worth doing it?

best regards
