Its Lion brand.

You didnt honestly expect a lithium ion cell that size for 20 odd quid did you lol

And not sure where you got 19v from. Car batteries are 12v and drop when discharging. Alternator charges at 14.5v

The brand of battery is lion, as in 'simba the lion' . You donkey, as in 'eyor the donkey'.

"Excuse me Mr RAC man, that battery is under warranty, please put it in my boot"

For next time.

FREE Lion Hoodie with Any Car Battery!‏

Worth £14.99

Use code: FREEJUMPER

Medium size only.

Thanks veedubjai, shame doesn't stack, will add to OP :smiley:

Can't stack codes FREEJUMPER and SAVEME75, just tried

IF it works 10% with Topcashback, tracked £1-82 already

I know, I tried but offered another alternative to those who prefer a hoodie with this crappy weather. The hoodie is at least worth more than the SAVEME75 savings on one battery purchase.

I could post another thread if it appeases you but can't be ass.:smiley:

Concerned that it doesn't say anywhere in the description or the picture that it's actually 12V like all car batteries (although when charged they can read at 19V and discharged around 9V).

Not sure it's a lithium battery, as it says "Calcium-Calcium" on the label. Had to google wtf that was. Looks like a promising technology, but as most of the articles on it are very recent I'm surprised it would be on the shelves so soon.

Meh for 20 take a dive if you have the cash to spare. It probably will be able to handle what your alternator gives it without exploding, but beware the colder months (sub zero) as Li-ion batteries (again, assuming that's what this is) don't fare well at lower temps.

The name of this site is "Hot UK deals" is it not? :wink:

Did you get the 10% TCB it tracked for me, unfortunately the Hoodie in Medium is no good for me as I'm a bodybuilder size XXL, alright for my 13 year old daughter I suppose.

Don't need it but should track as long you don't have any ad blocking apps. Just remember that TCB only approved codes that they authorised but you should always treat cashbacks are bonuses as they're not guaranteed until the merchant is happy to payout.

Not sure about your daughter would be pleased with free hoodie with Lion Batteries logo on it :laughing: but you could sew some embroidered patch badges like below. Just remove the Lion Batteries logo, stitch marks will show but patch it with embroidered badge.:smiley:

ordered wrong one!! its past 6pm so helpline closed. how easy is it to cancel with CP4L?

Make sure you keep the receipt,I bought a Lion battery from Euro Parts last year and it only lasted eleven months.Couldn't find the receipt,so had to buy an other one.But bought it from local garage and have made sure to put receipt safe.

lol, I read it as 'carpetsforless' I wondered why they were selling batteries....

I think its better to pay a bit extra for a Bosch. Some of these cheaper batteries don't last long.

This is rubbish

Buy Bosch or Varta Silver. I'd only be tempted with one of these if they gave away free jump leads!

A lithium car battery for 20 quid would be quite a find. Of course it isn't, it's a lead-acid battery. And if your car battery ever reaches 19v, you've got a very knackered voltage regulator in your alternator, and quite likely a battery which is about to explode.

I know its cheap but this is a bargains site and keep the receipt and use the 3 year guarantee like a Boss.

Ironically, it is this exact battery I needed for my MR2 which I bought yesterday and is now in the car. Cost £45.

Bosch

Just get the right battery for your car. Calcium are not a direct replacement for other batteries as their charging characteristics are different. I could write more but I will just give anyone who is interested a link http://www.batteryfaq.org

These batteries don't appear to work well in my experience - they seem not to hold charge very long or their stated capacities are not quite there

"Excuse me Mr RAC man, that battery is under warranty, please put it in my boot"

For next time.

just got a bosch for the Mrs car £41 with 4 years guarantee and free delivery! bargain

Thank you Mr Hindsight.

Thanks, Heat added

Look on the bright side the RAC man was able to get some beer vouchers for himself!

Good price for a 063 3 year guarantee battery! But LION batteries really are rubbish!

Thursday 10-15am Price has gone up to £29-00 before coupon/vouchers added

I bought one of these at the start of 2014, it was on the car 6 months before I sold it (thought the car had a battery fault but was something else so put an older 12v battery back on the car). It was then left outside for 6-8 months (during winter) and still had plenty of charge to start a small car, and has been on that car since (not used regularly) and its fine. For £20 (delivered & with 3 months warranty) Im not sure how you can complain?

These batteries are shocking.

Not had chance to look but is there a stop start version near this price?

Only taking £2.21 from total when adding code

I had 1 of these from eurocarparts and never again. I didn't pay much more than this. Died after 1 night and the cold crank power is crap. The jumper is worth more then the battery lol.

Gone to £29 now?

A fully charged car battery will give out 13.2 Volts, that is 2.2 volts per cell.

These must be good batteries after less than 20 hours on this site the charge has gone up.

Read #47 above.

Like for like spec wont need registering. TBH you can swap the battery and not reg it with just Ah difference, allegedly will shorten life of battery...but wont effect running. Given most decent battery's is 3-5years warranty wont really pose an issue

Had a full tank of petrol as well!

A while back they used to push people into buying a new battery and got done for it by some consumer groups.He probaly took that battery home, chargedf it up and stuck on his own car.

I don;t know much about batteries but mine failed just before Christmas a month out of warranty.
The guy who came out to replace it took one look at it, shook his head and said ' Not another Lion..'.
Told me that he would replace the battery with a decent one (Exxide) and that Lions were just not worth the cheap price. Pay 25-30% more and get a battery that will last far, far longer and be far more reliable.
Cheap price but you get what you pay for and I wouldn't touch these again.

Most consumers aren't fools. They know these aren't the greatest batteries so will buy them when fitting into their 2nd car/occasional, non- vital runaround. If there's a problem they'll get them replaced within the 3 yrs. After that they'll consider it £21 well spent.

Car battery experts added to the list of HUKD pain in the **** experts.....

Most owners never keep the car long enough to use up the warranty period, so it's the next owner who has the problem.

Yeah, I had a quick look, £29.40, discounted by £2.20. Cheapest I'm likely to get one tho' anyway, so've ordered one.

Was 1/2 expecting to have to replace the whole car this year, but pre-MoT check showed up only around £200 of work needed.
3yrs warranty'll be about right & I'll be careful to hang onto that receipt :smiley:

>>>>>
HEAT! Cheaper than trade and wholesale pallet pricing!

>>>>>
As for the hoodie.. thanks but got one..

Yeah, they take them home, wait until they have a stack of them, then take them to a scrapyard.

Not all drivers do this, though..

Decent find OP :sunglasses:

There have been some rather silly comments regarding this post. Lion batteries are perfectly good, I bought one (about £30 I think) for my Saab convertible that spends the winters in a garage, it is absolutely fine even after standing for a month or so at a time. If people want to waste money then they should buy Bosch batteries, they will not be any better, but they will come with a sexy badge to compensate for the extra cost.

The comment someone made about this being a lithium ion battery above has been ridiculed enough, I'm sure that poster has realised how daft he was. All lead acid batteries hold 2.1V per cell (this is just nature, nothing to do with the manufacturer at all), and in 12V ones there are (of course) 6 cells, so a fully charged battery holds 12.6V. Alternators usually charge at about 14.5V (any number greater than 12.6V, plus a bit to overcome impedance in the battery leads and terminals would do), but the battery cannot maintain a potential difference of more than 12.6V.

I've added heat: this is a perfectly good product at a very reasonable price indeed.

O

has this expired? showing as £27 after discount now

I have a diesel Siat Leon is tha battery all right

Free "hoodie"?
Being a MAN, I don't need my head protected from the cold.
I'd give it to one of the poor, feeble, weak teenagers that the human race is producing but I don't know any personally.
They'll be wearing mittens in summer soon. LOL

Read #62 above.

Actually if you read Wiki it says between 2.1 volts and 2.32 volts, but on my mechanics course several years ago we were told 2.2 and that seems to middle it.

I used to work on the design side for a major lead acid battery manufacturer. My new Exide lead acid starting battery read 12.67 Volts.
Feel free to to test the voltage of some new 12 Volt car batteries and tell us the results.

Actually its your MIND.

Is that it, Is that all your feeble squashed brain could come up with...
At least come up with something remotely intelligent like my comment to your silly question.

Move along fool!!

i have dealt with STUPID sods like you so many times. You are nothing but full of SH*T in your mind.

​my thoughts about you exactly, go troll elsewhere Numpty!

You're as bad as each other neither sense-able or funny, both please leave the stage.
