Upcoming Lesotho trip, current battery is still fine but pushing 3 years so thinking of just getting a new one for peace of mind and actually taking the old one with should someone need a battery during the trip..

So:

Motobatt    MBTX9U                            served me well in the past
Ultrabatt
Yuasa        TTZ10S or  TTZ14S          TTZ10S serving me well now.
Ballistic?

Not looking for the most expensive here... I've had Yuasa 10S now for 2.5 years and going strong, I bought the bike with a Motobatt and worked fine, not sure how long it was in there before I got the bike.

On this trip I will run a lot of electronics, spots, heated grips, phone chargers etc so I want peace of mind.

What are your experiences and where would you shop in PTA? I have had many expenses getting the bike prepped and buying new toys for the bike so I want a good battery at a fair price.

Thanks.
