very cheap to run but absolutely extortionate to purchase. the battery system is pretty clever also but only if you intend on keeping them in the boat. Get a minn kota and 2 batts linked together with a C-TEK charger.

Jim coulam is defo the man to talk too as Ifor says.

Been looking at batteries and charges. Some bloody price!!!!
Are there and cheaper batteries and chargers worth buying, or will I just need to bit the bullet?

Have a look here Graham, i got this one, free next day delivery , 3yr warranty - there are alternatives on the page but if i have no probs with this for at least 3 years , then £30 per year is quite reasonable i think.
