yes, but the voltage drops as the current increases. voltage needs to be stable while connecting to the OBD
What did you do with your Range Rover today

Indeed, hence the 'it would probably die before that' comment. DC has that unfortunate flip flop of current / voltage (stupid ohm and his laws
)
think its an 850AH, dont think much bigger will fit? maybe 900AH?
SDD wont work properly if the volts drops below 12.5
I fitted a 950 Bosch, but the famous MF will fit, would need some knudling to fit a strap though.
Does your battery have a land rover sticker on it?
Our IID knew which number our new 1 should be (3).
Apparently LR did a recall and changed the battery (underpowered?) so our 2011 was on its second battery when we got it.

the battery was fitted before the sale date so it will be the nastiest lump of lead available

i'm talking rubbish.. the 850 is CCA not AH

In that case, not long at alli'm talking rubbish.. the 850 is CCA not AH
Are you sure it has a 40A load, it seems quite high?

The LR 850 was 90AH
the bosch 950 is 105AH
They also have changed something and now they show an (EN) next to what would have been the CCA, believe its a similar but different number

Me thinks he has a task to check and let us know

no, i'm not sure but thought i'd read it somewhere.. easy enough to measure thoughIn that case, not long at all

i do know a fully charged battery, with ignition on, doesn't stay at 12.5v for very long

probbaly something to do with the time measurement.. sometimes its 10h, 20h or even 15hThe LR 850 was 90AH
the bosch 950 is 105AH

The CCA can only be maintained for a short burst. Perhaps the number is related to that?

I know that on some versions of the L322 the MF31-1000 will just squeeze in, it's 120ahthink its an 850AH, dont think much bigger will fit? maybe 900AH?

Exactly, hence the latter part of my comment

i'm very tempted to take the battery out and measure it.. measure the orifice.. and do a proper charge on it

Always worth testing so you know where you are.
The battery I fitted needed a re jig of the mega fuse (lhd) I did measure it but can’t find size. But pretty sure it was bigger than the MF. Was a dam sight bigger than the 1 in it

Yep I have said it before, couldn't get 1 here. But also didn't have to worry about fixing it down.

Think it was a smart charger I saw in aldi yesterday, 14 quid odd iirc.
Didn't pay much attention though as I already have a ring.
