Hi all. Just thought i would try a post to see if there are any other mcluis owners who are still using this site.
We have a mclouis 261 and took it out last weekend for the first time (no hook up) this year only to find that our leisure batteries were flat so no water pump or light in the middle of the night ... duh.
Any one any idea how long it takes to charge the battery when driving and/or how long while on a hookup?
No that isnt washing its the dogs bed lol.

Thanks for any help

Hi Playbyte and welcome to the FUN site

Charging time will vary on how far the betteries are disharged and their size. but I would have thought you would have had something in them after your journey.

Hopefully a Mclouis owner will come along with some advice, you may need to do something on the panel.
