12V Batteries
 
Hi,

Anyone got a recommendation for a good 12V battery to power my charger and bits during the day?

My current one's just about a year old and was only able to last long enough to charge 4 packs at the weekend - arse.....
Thats an 85Ah leisure battery after a full charge BTW...... :thumbdown:

Cheers

Mart

don;t go to halfords, very over priced. Cost co used to do Bosch ones really cheap, about £55 for a 110ah.
Or any local caravan dealer will probably be better value than halfords

Yes a leisure battery is far better than a normal car battery as they are designed to give a constant drain rather than high power for a short period.

I got mine from Chichester caravans for about £55 and its brilliant.
