Leisure battery - Yawn

Post by skippy1089 »

Sorry know there is loads on here about them but with 91 pages struggling to find the very basic info I want.

1> What can the leisure battery run? fridge and lights anything else?

2> Does this look ok for a Devon Moonraker behind passenger seat ?
http://www.alpha-batteries.co.uk/buy-on ... od_31.html

3> What sort of price would I be looking at to have it fitted and would I need to buy anything else apart from battery?

4> Is fitting the kind of thing any high street garage would do?

Thanks in advance and apologies for my ignorance.

perfect battry in facet %10000000000 great as its lesuire and fits

you cant run most fridges of lesuire battery as they draw a lot of amps best runnign them on gas if 3 way

you can run

1)car radio (with ni amp when parked up
2)sink water tap
3)inverter

anything 12v really

fit it yourself and the wiring i belive theres only about 4 wires and about £10 for the whole kit
