I find myself able to go much quicker knowing that my car shouldn't be a death trap tbh...
So your gel battery was 3 times the price of this then. Nope, not much more.

Hm, MOT rule or not, if you get pulled by VOSA they will screw you for it, I have seen it happen
Legal or not, more to the point its just outright dangerous to some degree....Flying battery is heavy, and even if its not flying dripping battery acid isnt something you ideally want to be dealing with when your upside down in a ditch trying to get out the car...
Not sure how it will end up flying!?
Battery acid dripping on me is likely to not be high on my concerns if I am upside down in a ditch.
I understand the concern and usually bacon grinding...but thats as it is...and its twice as safe as it WAS before I replaced it
Wishes for more power...
