A campervan on a rainy week in Scotland leans hard on its leisure battery. Keep the engine battery and the domestic bank separate, linked by a splitter or a DC-DC charger. After several seasons of heavy cycling, most leisure batteries show a clear drop in range.

The AGM technology explained
Glass-fibre separators in an AGM battery act like blotting paper for the acid. Because nothing can spill, AGM batteries can live inside a cabin, a boot or under a seat. If the original was AGM, the replacement should be AGM too.
