I need to replace the battery on my 12volt Just Engines starter.
I plan to use a LiFe PO4 4200 mah 4S ( 13.2V ) battery but I am not sure if this is suitable. Would appreciate informed advice on this .
P.S Hand starting is not for me !!

I use a Just Engines heavy duty starter on 24 volts (2x 10amp hour, 12 volt) to start Zen 62's. This starter is ok on 12 volts for smaller engines so depending what you are starting 13.2volts shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks Dave, I will stick with gel battery , more cranking power for less money.
