    Well done on breaking the 500 barrier. Enjoying your videos. I've stopped watching TV as well. You Tube far better.. Sorry can't help with the batteries. Not clued up on that. Hopefully someone will come along and give you some advice. 👍

      Can I ask if it was NMH Buyer you got your MH and if it was were they good to deal with?

      Hi Angus, yes it was and they were fine with us. There are always going to be niggles with older motorhomes, but they sorted out an early problem very quickly.
      The battery problem is just one of those problems which can happen anytime. They work fine until they need to work hard running the high powered heater blower on the Thule heater.
      If it was summer it wouldn't have mattered as the solar and the engine would give them enough charge to run everything except the heater blower which we wouldn't need to use then.

      Thanks for that. It's just that I'm looking for a MH and see they have one that has caught my eye. 😊

      It's always worth a ride up to have a look if you are up that way. They usually have plenty at their yard near Skipton.

    Hi, I used to be into car audio so I do know a bit about batteries, you said you wont be getting lithium,
    the next best thing is AGM, I would probably still use AGM for a car audio system now.
    when disconnecting batteries its best to remove earth terminal first then reconnect the earth back up last when re fitting.

      Hi edward, thanks for the information, I'll be looking at AGM, there are dozens of suppliers out there, so plenty of choice and.
