Not got a clue Niall, but might drop in if I see one. Not sure exactly where the Aldi is around here though. They might ship a few of the unsold ones across the Irish Sea

Have any of you bothered with the comfort connectors? I got some vouchers from my company for Christmas and looking at getting one of these since the charging LED on my screwfix special has packed in.

If so, since I'm offshore could one of you friendly chaps kindly let me know what size eyelets I need for the connectors on the battery? 8mm, 10mm? Furthermore, do I need anything else apart from the charger (was thinking this boy) and then of course either 10mm eyelets or 8mm eyelets

Cheers in advance,
Barry

Hi Barry

I actually bought a Halfords trickle charger in the end:

Cheap and cheerful but does the job, comes with all those connectors and you could use the balance of your voucher on petrol?

Cars no been started for a wee while and its totally deed. Not even a light on the dashboard. I really need to get something to keep it right.

Is there a difference between 'trickle chargers' and these CTEK ones? Obviously I need something that can be safely left on car at all times (when not in use) without supervision.

eta; like one of these? http://www.google.co.uk/shopping/pro...d=0CJgBEPMCMAY
