Aye OK, I've been piling on the beef for a while !!!!!!
Having read quite a bit about the light weight li-po batteries for bikes, in the real world -Winter cold cranking owners experiences don't marry with the claims. I run a high compression litre v twin that goes through a battery every couple of years.......different story with a 600 or even 1000cc multi. The Battery used in the latest generation fire blade is the same as the one in they're 125!!!!!
Stan, will try and get another lead to me which will be plumbed in to run the DAC.
Will borrow back one of my mini t amps from my son and give that a whirl today......

Tony, the Tripath story started for me when l had a Veritas P400 digital power amp( l believe that was a Tripath chip), until that broke and was unrepairable- what an amp! l must say it was then it is was Jerry's posts on the Mini-T that peeked my interest on Tripath amps again, and for me he was spot on, in my small room driving my Harbs the combo was incredible, and all down hill from there!

I have had great success with Yuasa 12V batteries. I noticed a couple left on eBay that are ridiculously priced for what they are. The seller must have forgotten the 1 at the front of his listed price.

Stan / Ladies & Gents,
To re-charge these type of batteries is a special charger required, or would an ordinary car battery charger do the job? Also, what type of connectors are required for the best fit?
Cheers,

The charger I used is

You need some spade connectors attached to a 2.1mm DC lead to fit to the battery after the battery is charged up.
I dumped all my stuff in the shed in various boxes so I can't get hold of them offhand to take pics. But I'll give it a go this weekend.
