What battery fits?
Discussion
My numax 896 battery has given up after 7 years so i ordered a new one from Tayna.. same make, same model but it's nearly a centimeter longer.
Anyone know an 896 battery that will fit a caterham? Old one was 180mm x 125mm and car is a 2007 metric and Tayna say all 896 batteries are the same which clearly they're not.

I've had bad experiences with Banner batteries in the past (despite using a CTek) so when the last one failed in October 2019, I put in a Exide battery from Tanya. It's still going strong with no issues so far. According to the invoice it's a Exide E60-N30-A and it was a perfect fit on to the 7's battery tray.
Thanks all. I ended up playing it safe, Tayna swapped the battery for a Banner.
My Numax lasted 8 years with Ctek assistance so we'll see how the Banner compares. If I could have measured exact dimensions of various '896' sized batteries I'd have gone with another of those though. (And lesson learnt that battery standards aren't all that standard)
