Is there anything better and cheaper than an Optimate 4?
I was going to replace my optimate with a ctek but as I've moved to a lithium iron battery bought a Noco G3500 and very happy.

Working out what is draining your battery?

These two should sort you out - reg/recs often sited badly even in newer Triumphs.

I have a jump starter battery that will get my rarely used 2.8 jeep going with a dead battery. It’s essential kit for the winter.

Went to take my bike out yesterday to go in to work yesterda, started it up and got the dredded click.
Pretty shit trying to work out the issue in the rain. Even more frustrating that I never got around to installing this work around, and even more frustrating still is that I'm certain I left my Optimate 4 with my mate when we moved to the US, and don't really believe he properly looked for it, but he is adamant he doesn't have it so what you gonna do? I guess I just need to look at it as £50 for a years bike storage. Just annoying buying something you've bought before.

I've already got the super long extension lead, plus a pigtail installed so reticent to buy something different, but thought it was worth asking.
