charging a leisure battery

[nostalgic]

Hi all can anyone tell me do you charge a leisure battery on a normal car charger thanks nostalgic.

Exactly the same as you charge any other battery

Thanks for that Ghost i forgot to connect the dual charger unit after taking the main battery off. I wont do that again in a hurry.

what are reasonably priced chargers, that can be left connected to the leisure battery to charge on hook up?

There's been plenty of recommendations and discussions either way on here... Some like the cheapos occasionally available from the German pikeymarkets, others like really expensive chargers that do everything bar repaint your van for you. Some need to recharge several hundred Ah of high-tech batteries in minutes, others don't. Some need to mix it with solar and Sterling alternator-management, others don't.

We mainly campsite, with the odd wild, and don't have TV/DVD/12v hairdryer/food mixer/microwave - and went CTek MXS 5.0, and are very happy with it.

Ha ha - first time I've answered a question - I'm usually the one asking them!!

I was advised to buy this charger on this very Forum a few months ago and did so.

I can heartily recommend it.
