    Leisure battery recommendations

    Can anyone please recommend the best value leisure battery for under £200? Something that will allow us to go off grid for at least a couple of days at a time. Thanks!

    EHU under bonnet - flat battery

    My van is new to me and I had the first off grid trip away last weekend with no issues. When I got home I plugged the EHU in to charge the leisure battery. The EHU is located under the bonnet so I plugged it in, lowered the bonnet but didn’t close it all the way for fear of damaging the cable...

    Which caravan battery???

    Hi all. I've recently purchased a touring caravan a couple of weeks ago and put it straight to storage. It's the first chance this weekend to get it out and have a play but it came with no battery. It's obviously the best time to buy one but not sure if a lithium would work in it as don't know...

    Daily driver leisure battery charging

    Just wondering what people do with their leisure batteries when using the van daily but not necessarily the leisure electrics? Do you leave it connected so the DC/DC keeps it permanently charged up or let the battery get to about 80% and isolate until the leisure electrics are needed?

    Leisure battery failed?

    Hi all So we have had our van for 3 months now and the leisure battery seemed to be working okay on our first trip with it in August. A 3 day trip with the leisure battery with solar allowed us fridge, water pump and a bit of lighting without EHU. All was good. However, during a late September...

    Can I charge my leisure battery without disconnecting,?

    I have a Sterling BBS1230 b2b charger and a 100ah LiFpO4 battery. Looking at the NOCO genius 10a. Can I hardwire this to the leisure battery and just plug it in to top up or do I need to disconnect the leisure battery before charging?

    Lithium Battery size for fitting under the vehicle

    Hi, I really like the idea of saving space by having my leisure batteries fitted underneath the chassis of my T6.1. New Wave Customs makes a bracket (see pic) that can do this, but they fit a 50 amh Extreme Series Battery Model PC1100, which is not a lithium battery. Under Body Leisure...

    I’m on the lookout for a lithium battery to replace my 110AGM, so thought I’d ask here first in case someone has a big upgrade planned and is looking to upgrade their lithium setup. What have you?

    Do I need to Convert in stages?

    Hi all, I have just brought a T6 panel van and I am going to be slowly converting it over 3/4 years (when I can afford it). Is there specific stages that need to be done before you move on to other stages? Thank you for any help

    New Solar Panel and Major Electrical Refit

    Hope this is of interest to anyone thinking of the same sort of conversion. Just picked up the T6.1 upon completion of a fairly major refit by Olie at Hythe Auto Electrics. Pleased as punch with all of the works completed. The new solar panel and Roamer 230 battery in particular has...
