Starter batteries and leisure batteries are designed for different tasks. Starter batteries, in order to start the engine, must initially supply a high current level and will then serve as an energy buffer with smaller partial cycles. Supply or leisure batteries, by contrast, are charged and discharged at lower current levels for longer periods of time, which means they are subjected to significantly higher loads.
Correct charging is the key to success. As suppliers of Victron, Waeco and Mastervolt chargers, we have a product to suit you.
How powerful a battery charger has to be depends on the battery capacity. As a rule of thumb, the charging current of the battery charger should be at least 10% of the battery capacity.
