Just as I put the finishing touches on the Moke for registration all the cheap workarounds start packing it in Today my 6.1 month old (6 month warranty) $19 supercheap battery collapsed 
So its a one more tyre for the spare and a new battery and its the registration lucky dip next week for me |

You bought a $19 battery and got six months out of it? That's pretty good considering you've hardly driven the car. Batteries ted to die with lack of use. I had a car battery drop a plate the day we were trading that car in once!! It would not even jump-start. It was an odd sized battery so I could not find a second-hand one anywhere. So I had to buy a new one. That hurt, spending $110 on a battery you would only own for a few hours.

Also remember to carefully peel the sticker with the date off the new battery & place on the other "new" battery Not that I endorse this sort of thing... |

Done - but I added another. I took the old battery back with the new receipt then I took the new battery back and got a refund without a receipt - then I bought a decent battery for an extra $20 - |
