I'm finding it very difficult to keep the leisure battery in our 2109 MP adequately charged in lockdown. Where it is parked (in town) we don't have the ability to use the electric hook up, and aren't supposed to drive very far so it doesn't get a decent charge.
So I'm thinking of getting a solar charger that sits in the windscreen to keep the leisure battery charged up. I haven't yet delved into the innards, so have the following questions:-
1 Which seat is the leisure battery under - driver's or passengers?
2 Is it easy to get at, and to fix the charging leads to?
3 Is it possibe to charge the leisure battery through any of the 12v cigarette lighter sockets in the vehicle?
4 Is a solar charger going to work (probably not in a Scottish climate)? Anyone got a particular recommendation?
5 Any other alternative solutions?
Thank you.
