Went out all kitted up this morning, and had to jump start Zongie again.

I'm going to get a battery. The only problem is finding one the right size and capacity.

I can get 8ah batteries which will fit in the box but have yet to find an 11 ah with the right size casing.

How important is the amp hour rating? I know the more amp hours the 'bigger and longer' the battery will be. This aside will a lower capacity battery simply die more quickly or will the system be damaged due to insufficient current supply?

I'm pretty sure I can get a lithium battery which will fit, but they are hideously expensive !
