). I've just put it back on and started the old girl, took a bit but got there in the end so I'm not sure if this batteries ok or not really I'll just have to keep my eye on it, would still like a new one though.
The web tells me that the "standard" battery for a vit does 300 cold cranking amps and 36Ah.
Anything over and above this is fine, although probably not worth paying extra for unless you have loads of accessories/lights/winches/fairydustguns.

Don't bother with the winch with that battery. The rest should be ok.
For a winch, you probably want in excess of 200Ah.
