UPS Battery for 996 bad idea? Has anyone tried this out? working in IT i recent took a APC 1400 UPS apart as its batteries had failed. Upon looking at the battery i noticed that A:- it will almost fit into the battery case on a 1999 996 (only the height of it is slight taller the x and z are all smaller) b:- lead battery sealed c:- 12v 17ah Would it be a bad thing to use something like this as a spare battery for the bike, as mine is having a hard time starting in this cold weather? its a gp 12170 i guess it wasnt desinged for automotive damage (shaking and bouncing around) Last edited by james81273 : 02-Nov-2006 at 13:27. |
