Leisure Battery

[t25darren]

Anyone know what leisure battery will fit under my westy seat? I have a normal car battery at the moment but is only 38 amp hour.
Many thanks

Hi Darren
Have a search, there's loads of info in the wiki about batteries etc, but to be fair most folk - me included - just use an second starter battery

These have been suggested, but I've not tried one myself

Thanks
Id rather have a nice 110amp leisure battery though, anyone moved their leisure battery to the engine bay? if yes what is involved?

Thanks
Darren

You can fit a 100ah Elecsol under the seat...

I think you should read this thread on brickyard
Then get yourself one from Alpha Batteries.
No need to put one in the boot.

Yeah we bought a 110 amp from Alpha, just measure your space and finds one that fits, no probs with ours so far.
Good luck

I got a 100ah elecsol under my passenger seat they fit.

However, I also got a pair of Trojans and you never need hook up ever again!

I don't know the part number, though this is the one I brought from Tanya.

Mine fits under the seat in the well. Though I don't have a ply board lid, unlike where my starter battery is. I just have a piece of carpet going over the top of the battery, which gives me a bit more clearance!
