I only use a cheap 75ah battery on my van, think it cost me about £40 ish but it's mainly for ballast as we tend to use sites with leccy hook up.
will be fitting a 120ah once I've got a motor mover fitted. |

It's a case of big kid... see it ..want it
this chap had a remote control one on the pitch opposite us last time we went away. I had a play!! and decided then that my van's gotta have one on...but I will have to save up for it (missus won't let me sell one of the kids) |
