Good advice, no info on the type of charger. Only that I can see the charge light on when I Look in the belly lockers.. Seems to hold charge when we are away. Thank you, I'll try thatNot if you have an intelligent charger which reduces/stops charge when the batteries are full. otherwise with an ordinary charger you will cook them. I expect you would know by now if that were the case. Tp prove they are ok why not unplug the electricity for a day or two to see if they are holding charge.

As said it depends on the charger fitted to your van and the make of battery. Some batteries cannot tolerate having a constant float charge, which is why a lot of folk had failed Banner batteries.I leave to the 240 connected to the MH when not in use, could this be detrimental to the life of the batteries, pretty much been on all winter although I do us e the MH every other wkend

You could....but your leisure battery and INVERTER (see below) won't last long.I have a leisure battery charged by solar panels a power converter 12/240 120w and an intelligent battery charger. Is there any reason I cannot connect the converter to the leisure battery the charger to the converter and charge the vehicle battery even on a trickle charge to avoid the dreaded flat vehicle battery.

The inverter will shut down due to overload.Always confusing my inverters with converters bugger. Does this mean it will kill the battery and inverter in short measure or could I use it one/twice per week to top up or is it simply a no no. Not too clued up on electronics and batteries
I expected better from someone in his position. Lead Acid batteries do not suffer from any memory affect. That was NiCad batteries where that was a problem.may create a kind of memory effect on the leisure battery.
