Hello all, my leisure battery has died, I can drive for up to 10 hours a day, have the solar panels pumping in 150w and after 10 minutes of light in the evening, power drained. So I need a new one. However, I cannot make myself clear to the battery sellers herein Malaysia that I want a leisure battery.
What are the other names for a leisure battery? I believe it is a cyclic battery, but am not 100%.
Could it also be called a storage battery which I did see in the shop.
Is there any other way to tell from looking at the outside?
Many thanks

If you have a yachty type marina, the chandler, if there is one, should be able to help with a marine battery which are better than leisure ones, albeit pricier.
