My mate and I are stuck in Port Macquarie with a battery charger that needs replacing. After an extensive ring around looking for a business to install a Ctek charger all we got were comments like " nah sorry mate we are booked up until August; can't install".
Not one or two but at least 10 trade
places.
Then we were driving past Battery World and tried them; we had spoken to just about everybody else! What a welcome surprise. They had a Ctek charger at a competitive price AND could install the NEXT day.
I have had similar response in Charter's Towers when I was looking for a service on the Prado. No one could do it except - surprise, surprise; the Toyota dealer. Next day no problem. Lucky because they had the parts for a bullbar recall that hadn't been done. All fixed on the same visit.
So, cheers for Battery World in Port Macquarie and Toyota in Charters.
Brickbats for all the other non helpful trades.

That is good, but don't you carry a small 240 v, multi battery type, charger, ie Projeata, for use if main system fails? Even a small MPPT solar reg to connect to solar and continue to charge batteries! If not, you leave yourself open to failures and inconvenience and warm drinks.
PS. Only 4 wires to connect and continue the trek.
