+1 for the Bosch. Comes with a 5 year warranty too. Whatever you go for, remember that gas venting is needed. I think the Silveline's from Bosch allow you to choose which end you position it.

This gas venting - my battery doesn't have it... :scratchhead:

Piccy for you... but no gas venting - should I be worried X5Sport?
