I've searched high and low, even learned the type of grease required to service the terminals, discovered that there *may* be an isolator switch under the seat, but cannot determine what the nominal battery size, AHr capacity and pin-outs are for an original MJ...
And, d'uh, it is a 24 Volt, rather than a pair of strapped 12 Volt units ??
Can someone please take a look under their prized vehicle and rescue me ??
The context is that the expedition's larger vehicles will be parked-up on the research site for much of their four months. Even with an isolator switch, there will be appreciable self-discharge. Okay, the vehicles could be 'idled' once a week but, when there's a perfectly good diesel generator supplying the camp, why not attach a 'three-stage' battery charger on a wander lead and 'freshen' them in rotation ??
