    Halfords battery very pricey, where instead?

    That one is 400w, the Halfords one is 313w. I know there are different types of Bosch batteries that aren't compatible, but someone like @soundwave understands better - he may be able to confirm that one is ok and, as you say, double check with Merlin Cycles
