Which battery optimiser??
 

Can anyone reccommend a good battery optimiser please? I need to get one for my bro's birthday...he rides an R1 ( its ok folls, ive got an XT ;)

Ive looked at the oxford 900 but it has mixed reviews. Saying it doesn't last.

Nothing more than �50 please.

Cheers!

I use an Optimate 4. Works brilliantly. �49.99 from M&P and you can get a 10% discount as your a member of XT660.com making it �45, nicely within your budget! :D

I've got an Optimate that's been on the wall for over 5 years, and still works perfectly.

I also have an unbadged one from Hein Gericke that was really cheap, still works after 4 years.

dont buy the oxford one, use to have an old optimate one after it broke the old man bought an oxford one (even though i said buy the optimate) and after 2 weeks (and only 3 uses) cables that come from the box split and bare wires were showing, but the old man didnt bother taking it back so taped them up, 2 weeks later wires fell off and too late to take it back. think that was about �60 down the drain

Optimate here too, lead from battery is fairly robust and waterproof too.

Optimate here too,the only oddity is the Mk1 version it has a different connector and isn't compatable with all the other versions,the MK4 and later will even take the battery on my Sprinter van to a full charge,earlier versions wouldn't.
