when the track car turned up the other day it had these little beauties in the engine bay.

they say 24v, separated are they the red top equivalent? as i have 2 i could just separate them and use one in the track car and 1 in the williams? will they provide the correct ampage?

UPS is uninterupted power supply, they are mainly used for things that require power all the time, so if a power failure occurs then they take over...

Cant see why they would be fitted to a car though, unless it had some charging issue

it was only fitted to the car so it had lights on the was home when being towed. it says its 17aH per 12v battery so im assuming they wont start a car as a car batt is 45aH

going on ebay if it doesnt work, not the end of the world
