Unless the cheaper company is on its way out of business due to its prices being too low.

Now as Colin said - what was being sold thats grumped you?

If you're talking about a voltage regulator - then 'everywhere else' are also ripping you off.  On line B & S dealer charges £40 and that includes VAT

It's all about demand, supply chain and overheads.
In Prochems case they are only selling to a handful of truckmount users in relative terms to all the other types of mechanical machine that use a regulator across the country.

And you brought two batteries (that must have cost 80quid) only to find out it’s a regulator where as 10quid meter would have told you. Think I paid about 30quid for mine so you were ripped off again (I would move it to a non heat place but that will cost you a bit, drill and bit/extra cable (correct voltage) and connections, did you try hydramaster understand they are quite reasonable
