Save on silly postage costs by using your local Manbat branch. They stock all the Numax batteries listed on Tayna and are most likely cheaper. (Although they recently told me on enquiry that they now only stock sealed maintenance free numax- i'd much prefer open cells) | Save on silly postage costs by using your local Manbat branch.

Leisure battery deep cycling FAQ
Under seat Dimensions, 310 wide x 175 deep (front to back) x 190 high. these are absolute maximum a shade less would be better. I have measured to the bottom of a swivel seat on a camper.
Leisure battery to fit under the seat in a T25? Haven't got the whole post, but these looked like the best candidates:
VA/W096 - Solent £32.24 63Ah 2year 280 175 175
065TE - Exide Ultra £43.79 60Ah 4year 242 175 175
096TE - Exide Ultra £57.84 70Ah 4year 280 175 175
097TE - Exide Ultra £43.79 60Ah 4year 242 175 175
090VSE - Exide classic £47.79 60Ah 3year 242 175 175
095SE - Exide classic £46.64 63Ah 3year 278 175 175
096SE - Exide classic £42.77 63Ah 3year 280 175 175
100VSE - Exide classic £59.20 70Ah 3year 280 175 175
N.B. they are not strictly leisure batteries, but high capacity batteries that should be hopefully able to stand a bit of deep cycling. PRICES DO NOT INCLUDE VAT
available from Furneaux Riddall
I have found several Numax 60Ah batteries that fit priced £38.60 plus vat (£45.59 delivered)
available from Tayna Electrical Supplies (6 batteries on page 6)

Actual Leisure Batteries
Some Varta and Delphi batteries are the right size. Though they range from around £60 - £90

elecsol 100Amp hour look like it may fit seen on this Ebay shop [1] or [2]
An Elecsol 100 amp hour battery will fit in the box under your seat but a westy battery flap will not close and a seat without a swivel mech will foul the battery when slid back.
If you look on the pages of SBMCC - by far the best resource for building campers, you'll see that most folks just say put the battery somewhere else. That way you can use a larger capacity battery (like 110AH) that'll last longer in use and not get discharged too much so extending the lifespan.
