I plan to mark it up as 11th armoured but don't know if they would be part of an armoured regiment or REME.
There doesn't seem to be many pictures of starter chargers about.

Welcome to forum, and condolences on succumbing to the green disease.

I don't recognize the term starter charger. In the NW Europe Canadian context there were trucks with battery chargers and replacement batteries for the gun tanks. My big book of all things intelligent gives them as, Truck, 15-cwt Battery Charging + Trailer, 20-cwt Workshop Servicing, located in Headquarters Squadron's Administrative Echelon. Like any other fitter's vehicle, they'd move forward as requested to get a tank with dead batteries going. This was of course in the days before the invention of jumper or slave cables.
