Other benefits of a bigger batteries are the great handles that are built into them and there's less room to drop spanners, nuts, the knurled knob off my dis-car-nect down the side

I squeezed an 096 battery into my Minis battery box. Overkill? Yes. Do I care? Hehe no!

Deff worth getting bigger next time i need one then esp once amp and sub are in!

Is this picture right i thought lead at bottom be earth but its red? lol on mine its earth and black top lead is +?

Yeah the red lead is the earth. It is battery cable off some big Jaguar that my dad got me. It is three times bigger than a standard earth strap so I chopped it up to make an earth for the battery.
