battery for generator

[jphegers]

I have a Power Master 7.5 Va power generator, i have probably emailed and phone over thirty places trying to find a replacement battery to no avail.
Is there anyone who can give me info as to where i could find a 12 V 14 AH battery or a similar lithium ion battery , i tried a 12 V 18 ah battery but it is too big to fit into the generator.

Motorcycle shops?

Batteries Unlimited, Marconi Beam Industrial, Western Cape.
Give them a call, they do even the most obscure lead-acid batteries you'll ever see

Try regal security

• 12V 17 Amp hours sealed lead acid battery
• Dimensions: 180mm (L) 76mm (W) 167mm (H)

Or two 7 amp hour batteries in parallel

Don't have space to put dual or or 17 ah

Get a smaller one then. The capacity is less important than the cold cranking amps rating.

I need to find a new one of these - I've been using one of those portable battery boosters to start the generator (mostly because I'm too lazy to pull start it)

What is the lifespan of a power booster jump starter because they are Virtually the same as a what a litium ion battery for my generator will cost?

PE - I expect one won't be difficult to find once I actually start looking.

Hi jphegers. Did you manage to find a battery? I've been all over Pretoria today to find one.

I hope that it's a 7.5kVa generator
I suspect that it's a whitelabelled Chinese GenTech Industries genny?
