dr_mat 0 Posted July 5, 2004 Does anyone know where I can buy one of those solar trickle battery chargers from? I'm going away next weekend and need to get one ASAP, so shops are preferred to mail-order! Cheers, Matt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted July 5, 2004 Hmm - drawback with these, it just occurs to me, is that they require the ciggie lighter to be live to charge the battery... They also do one with yer actual bulldog clips on it, so I suppose that could be wired into the battery somehow - anyone got any suggestions what the best way to achieve this is?

dazzyvr6 0 Posted July 5, 2004 maplins would be your best bet i would say,i think they do a few types of trickle chargers,solar powered or mains clipped to your battery leads Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted July 5, 2004 What about routing the cables - where do you think's easiest to hook it up to? (I found one at Maplins actually, and there's one walkable from my house, so yeah, that's the place I think!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted July 5, 2004 trap 'em in your door at the top front and then under the bonnet between the wipers... there should be enough give in the seals not to damage the cables... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted July 6, 2004 The fag lighter is connected directly to the battery so should work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
