Why do you want a bigger battery? Why not just use the standard one.

Ive got a couple of AA Energizer batteries in mine, the ones you press and it tells you whats left.
I heard the ones in torches are the best to get.
On a serious note though...Optima Yellow Top are the best.

+1 for the optima batterys and they are dry cells so you can even mount the them upside down if you so desire

Someone needs to try one of these, and video it.
Provided they can lift the sl*t anywhere near.

u think a yellow top is better than a blue top then? as i can get 1 for cheap. as my battery dies every now and then ddue to amps and not being driven regulary

performance batterys .com, type in your saxo and they give you a list of ones that fit, thats where i recently got my new one. if not just measure your current one and compare the dimensions to the one you want to get..
