Traction battery
After some advice on here, I am considering buying a traction battery to replace my dead leisure battery. Anyone here use one? Are they worth the money and what is the best way of looking after them? Cheers

Re: Traction battery
nesty has had a Trojan traction battery in for over a year now.
He used it without charging it for months on end during a tour of Scotland.
I would thoroughly recommend them if you can afford it
if you search nestys posts there is one with all the information
I am fitting mine at the end of the year.

Re: Traction battery
Which one do you use? How are you charging it and how often – sorry for the interrogation!albertramsbottom wrote:Awesome batteries, I have had one for 3 years
