Practical advice for boats and motorhomes
Narrowboat crews rely on their batteries for days between charges. Ventilate the battery locker, even with sealed batteries. Years of nightly cycling eventually take their toll on any leisure battery.
The lead-carbon technology explained
Most lead-carbon batteries come in a sealed AGM format. A yacht that motors for twenty minutes out of harbour puts more back into lead-carbon than into ordinary lead. Replace the bank together.
Before you order: a quick checklist
- ✓ It comes with T11(M8) terminals, so check that your leads, lugs or plugs can attach to them without adapters.
- ✓ Sticking with lead-carbon avoids surprises, unless your vehicle maker approves a change.
- ✓ Tape measure time: 483 × 170 × 238.5 mm is the footprint and height of this case. Leave a little clearance for the clamp and the cable lugs.
Your questions answered
Can a battery be stored before use?
Yes, gradually. Lead batteries lose a little charge each month, lithium much less. A quick charge before use is a good idea.
What size is the Leoch LDC12-180 and how much does it weigh?
Overall it is 483 × 170 × 238.5 mm (L × W × H) and tips the scales at 50.1 kg. Weight is a good clue to how much active material is inside.
What voltage and amp-hours does this model have?
Yes, if they are identical. Two 12V units of 180Ah in series give double the voltage; in parallel they give double the capacity at 12V.
