That's the one to get, the Accumate.
Most people here would recommend them, I certainly would

yes the Optimate is designed for smaller capacity batteries and it has a lower charge rate I think. Although saying that others have used them with cars ok.

I got the Accumate from TVRmonster (and a wall bracket from ebay)and it took a few days to get the green light first time I used it indicating the battery was not too heathly. But since then it comes on alot quicker now.

I looked at the thread out of curiosity from the title. What’s the link to chargers?

If you want to ask a question about “What Chargers” it would have made it easier, or am I missing something? smile

OH and an Accumate IMHO

point taken but as i thought it was a bit of a lame question i thought id say so before anyone else go in first and also some people cant help themselves and have to look at "bone questions " and have a dig (bone meaning supid)

Henley Heritage TVR will fit one in the boot for you so all you need to do is open the boot and plug her in smile Had it done myself a couple of weeks back.
