Re: Leisure Battery
We fitted a car battery (same as the cranking battery) as a leisure battery. No probs with that but the charging relay gave up the ghost; no idea when. I only found out when the leisure battery went flat. BUT, using interior lights and ignition for the fridge it took months to discharge. Lights must have been dimming but I thought it must be me in my old age! So, for us, a car battery as leisure battery is fine.
Are we going on anything else?

No problem.
We are away this weekend at the brilliant Malpas Steam and Vintage rally
But after that, feel free to call on the number quoted, (working hours), and I will come and have a look, early evening, in return for a cup of tea
