I have just lost my 2nd cranking battery in a year due to being left for long periods with a constant bleed.
I have been forced to leave Harriet at the secure site for extended periods due to illness over the last 9 months, each time convinced I had decoupled the battery, each time wrong.
Should I spend £120 on a brand name or £60 on a no mark battery? Is there a quality difference?
I have just bought a Battery Master from Eddie V B and disconnected the Pioneer in-dash radio/MP3 player that may have been the cause.
Ashley at VB told me that whenever they fit a Pioneer radio they always fit a fixed on/off switch so I may well refit the radio with the switch once I am sure the bleed has been sorted.
I have a solar panel on the roof (not sure if it is 80 or 100 watt) feeding 2 x 110amp leisure batteries.
All (sensible ) opinions welcomed.
