Replaced both vehicle and leisure batteries just recently nothing wrong with the old ones but I don’t know how old they were and they were both unbranded so replaced both with top quality items on the basis of better safe than sorry as Sod’s Law dictates they will go at the worst possible time ! Now looking to go lithium for extra capacity as we always camp off grid so no hook up power. If you don’t have any goggles when checking your battery just use the “safety squint” 😜🇬🇧
Hahahahah loving the safety squint 🤣 lithium is a good idea, I have the fear when off grid in the winter and I'm mostly off grid these days. Summer seems OK though.
haha me too battery hydrometer ,ive put put full lithium system in mine now
Good idea Neil! I'm out tonight in Bamburgh and its already dropped to 12.2v. in one hour. Think I'll need to do the same soon, even though its only been 7 months.
