Rock Trol (29th May 2016)
I have a turbo beanie fitted to the turbo on my zd30 Di.
My Aux battery is a Trojan wet cell 115AH , I have experienced
less fluid loss since fitting the beanie. Under bonnet temps are much lower now
especially near the Aux battery
These are the same batteries the use on the shipping bouys
in Port Phillip Bay with some solar panels

@Robo ,I based my decision on thermal dynamics lol
it will get the heat out faster and I suspect less
radiant heat as well on near by fittings like intercooler
etc.
After a HWY stint Ill idle till the EGTs come down abit and then some.

Has anyone used Bond batteries? Are they any good?

Ended up getting a Caterpillar 8C3602 710CCA seemed to be the most CCA that would fit the battery tray.
