What Is A Leisure Battery

If you own a caravan or motorhome, it’s almost inevitable you’ll have a leisure battery UK. This is the power source that your appliances and equipment depend on to provide lighting, power your oven and your kettle and even a TV. In short, leisure batteries UK wide offer some of the essential comforts of home while you’re away on a trip. You may wonder what’s the difference between a standard car battery and a leisure battery. While both can be used interchangeably for short periods of time if necessary, they do work in different ways. A small car battery emits the short burst of energy required to kickstart the vehicle’s engine. A small or large leisure battery, on the other hand, provides a slow release of constant energy over a longer period of time to keep your appliances running. Another feature of leisure batteries is that they keep your appliances, and therefore your family or friends, safe by adjusting and levelling out any irregularities in the power supply. Looking after your leisure battery properly will lengthen its useful life, therefore saving you money. It will also ensure your vehicle and its occupants can enjoy holidays safely.
