Hi, can anyone help please I went in my van last week and found that it had "exploded"/expanded "burst"??..never seen this before..I have a trickle charge to the main battery on all the time..could it have over charged the leisure?..that said I have had this battery in the van since I bought it 6 years ago but thought it was a sealed unit but it wasn't(I never topped up during this period)..I live in Stockport and need to get one(urgently as am going away for the Bank Holiday in two weeks), 170mm deep,200mm wide and def 170 mm high to alowl the passenger seat to move back/forth and swivel without the battery pillars impeding this..tahnksas ever Steve

Thanks from me also; Just discovered my old 60ah leisure battery was sill only at 10.4v after a night on the charger, so upgraded to the 90ah Xplorer from ebay. Always good to find this /before/ you go on holiday... :)
