Thread: Cheap battery?

  1. #1

    Default Cheap battery?

    Well the Miata battery is just about dead. I have a Flyin Miata battery on the way but I don't know if it's coming tomorrow or Saturday and I have work between now and then. Any ideas? O i checked autozone and o'reilly's and they both want $99.99.

    They all goes for similar price, unless you want to chance it and use the regular lead/acid battery. The price on-line + shipping is a little cheaper w/o tax.

    Jumper cables? A trickle charger?

    Mine has been acting up a little on mornings below 30 degrees, so last night I hooked up the 1amp/hr trickle charger and it started w/out any problems this morning.

    Get a portable jump starter that charges up with 120VAC and keep it in the trunk. That, and charging at home with a trickle, should hold you till your new battery arrives.

    All right i'll get a portable jump starter. I have been using the trickle charger the past month.
