LIDL are offering a very good tyre inflator on 2nd October as one of their 'specials'. It will only be available in limited quantities for a short period.

I have one of these, bought last time they were offered and it's a great bit of kit. It's the best tyre inflator I've used. Really good quality.
Tried to get one last time they were in but sold out... would go this morning but waiting on a pickup :doh:
Also they have those chargers in again..i can recommend those.they are superb bits of kit...one of my best buys.

2nd October Grant, for the tyre pump. Won't be in stock until then.

I have a conventional charger bought from Lidl when they first started in this country, that will charge completely flat batteries.
Ah, good..i will put it in the callander:)Quote:

Battery is a bit smaller than ideal too. Does the job though. I did about 2000 miles last year lolQuote:

I also have a very old conventional charger, bought in Woolworths over 45 years ago, think it was made by Belling, would have to check.
Also have a Woolworths electric tyre pump / flashlight, bought about 40 years ago.
Both the above still work fine.
My usual battery charger was bought new in about 1973. I have a sixties one too. Both are good reliable bits of kit. They even have a 6v setting :).
(there's a little trickle charger knocking about here somewhere. If I can find it, I may connect it to the bike battery periodically over the winter)
Got an old charger somewhere but don't remember last time I had to use it and I don't do that many miles?
Its a big engine to start and everything is electric so uses juice. If i could afford a big battery i would have it but they are really expensive. And a top up now and then is no major thing .car is parked right next to back door or one of sheds that all have power.
