1.Yes.
2.No unless you connect it up the wrong way.
3.No unless you connect it up the wrong way.
4.All depends on how flat your battery is.Diesel vans do drain them quicker though.
5.Yes. Some can be re-charged from your vans 12v socket(naturally when it's running)as well as a 240v source.

I haven't looked on eBay for prices but there's one on offer at Aldi today for £24.99
