Connecting a Halfords solar maintainer to a leisure battery is easy.

Like a smart charger, you simply need to connect the red clamp to the positive terminal on the

Kevina, 12.5v is not far off 40% DOD for a Silver technology battery, is it not likely to have lost quite a bit of life/capacity in being allowed to discharge so low?

And yet a battery of 91Ah can be found in Cat 'A' and a battery of 115Ah be found in the bottom 'C' category. Note that even though you have many custom settings available, the victrons still have a brain of their own and will adjust as necessary. There is already a storage mode built in. Also, if you set a certain absorbtion period it is considered as max time. More often than not, if it has been sitting for a while I see a pattern of slowly degrading minimum voltage with sometimes only 1 min in absorbtion then it "wakes" up after about a week and charges a bit more to refresh the battery. Usually does up to 30 min in absorbtion on those days. Because the loosely tied bags can be inflated or deflated to accommodate the changing Fridge contents, there is very little air to be lost when the door is open. Bags fold flat when not required so no space is lost. the voltage rises to 14.4V to deliver the bulk charge to the battery. When the battery is charged, the voltage is decreased at stage 3 to 13.6V to deliver a float charge to maintain the battery in the fully charged state".

The later Schaudt 18amp chargers had a 4 hour timer and the very latest version as used in the EBL 119 has 8 hours, which will charge the imaginary battery bank above in just over 4 hours, not 3 days. I have never been a big fan of the Victron and so never bothered to go into the charging profile for the Victron Solar chargers.Yuasa’s Active range features three types of battery technology. Conventional Flooded, Enhanced Flooded (EFB) and Absorbed Glass Matt (AGM). My biggest problem in raising awareness, is Sargent Electronics who talk about 'protecting the battery' at 9.0v!!!! If that is the case then the small size of the charger shouldn't be an issue. But if you intend to use the mains charger a lot, it will struggle to deliver the current needed by two AGM batteries, which as you know can charge twice as fast (therefore draw twice as much current as a Wet Acid battery). class="b-button__primary">Shop Yuasa smart charger for leisure batteries

However, it’s important to remember that, due to their internal chemical reaction, batteries

A. Ideally, charge each battery on a separate charger unit. If this is not possible, charge batteries in series. We do not recommend charging batteries in parallel because it is not possible to control the amount of current passing through each battery. If batteries in different states-of-charge are being charged in series, each battery should be removed as soon as it is charged. (If you wait until the last battery is charged, some of the batteries will be overcharged). Banner now list as a major disadvantage of their AGM batteries, that they don't Deep Cycle very well and this also applies to the Varta AGM's. Previously Halfords had 'insisted' on 'their' batteries being a lower cost option, and therefore inferior, to the usual manufacturer provided product under a contract. A. Boost charging is not recommended except in exceptional circumstances e.g. a stranded customer, as this will reduce battery life, especially if a battery is boost-charged more than once.Could someone give me an idea of which AGM battery I could match to my current LA95 without breaking the bank.
