Anything over 4200 35c will be fine, so basically any race cell on sale today. Remember the homologation list gets updated in January ... don't risk buying something that isn't on the list under the belief it's a "dead cert' " ... loads of people got caught out this year with one brand that was popular but never homologated!!!!

.

List dose get updated in Jan by my understanding is that the cells on the list are not legal until April that year

can be found in the EB rules


2.8 Subject to 2.1 & 2.7 (above), the new battery will be included on the
homologation list for the following year, and can be legally used at BRCA sanctioned
events from the 1st April of that following year. It follows that any new battery
becoming available during a calendar year can only be used from the 1st April in the
subsequent year. i.e. No new batteries will be homologated during the calendar year
or racing season. This does not include 1S Batteries for 2010, which can be added
until 1st. April 2010.
