leasure battery

Post by axeman »

what sort of voltage should i be getting on the leasure battery when the engine is running, only asking as the main battery was reading 13.85v and at the same time, well 20sec later the leasure battery was at 12.35v, is this what should be expected? it's on a factory holdsworth villa 3 install.

many thanks neil

Depending upon length and size of cabling I wouldn't like to see a drop of more than 0.3V preferably less. The leisure battery is getting flat at 12.35v.
