I have just fitted one of those usb and cigarette lighter socket things and it has a digital volt reading, it is reading 12.7 volts on the battery I use as my leisure battery although in fact it is just a out of a mates car he was scraping so not a proper leisure battery, does that sound right and should I have added a few more comers in this? :ok Thanks.

Thanks, I need to wire up the split charger next but for now I am using a solar panel to see how that goes.

12.6v is a fully charged battery at rest.
