What kind of batteries are people running in their petrol Series II's? I need a replacement and am having trouble finding one.

I have an Optima.

I ran a larger Diehard deep cycle (had to enlarge the battery tray about 2") when I had a winch and just one battery. They lasted a really long time.
Now I run Exide Orbitals.

Just tell them you want a GROUP 24 Battery. Don't even mention Land Rover. A Group 27 will fit, but you don't need it unless you run alot of accessories (and have upgraded from generator to Alternator)

I bought mine from walmart. I think it was there supermaxx or something. Had high CCA (I believe 800+) etc. have had it for a few years and usually cranks over real easy, and I've been happy with it.
