Hey folks. Just had to replace my leisure battery. Only had it two years. I don't know if that's good or not but just wanted to hear others advice on keeping the new one working for as long as possible.
What I initially done was to fully charge the battery and use it until it died. Initially it lasted 2 days but that slowly decreased.
Is that the best way to do it? Should I charge it after every day?
The other other option I know is to have some kind of setup that charges the battery in the van. I have an inverter connected to my van battery that let's me plug my charger ( it's a basic halfords one). Is it fine just to plug the charger into that and have it charge the battery as I'm driving? Most of my work is within a few miles of my house. Will that be enough to keep the battery charged with enough power to work all day?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks
