Hi all, after moving my van the battery indicator went into the 10v range, so i decided to hook up to 240 after I left it on charge for two hours it showed a fully charged battery after the two hours should it have charged this fast?
Leisure battery help?

If you are relying on the on board voltage indicator,,,,,dont!!
They are notoriously inaccurate.
If you still had the mains connected to the van when you looked after 2 hours , it will show full as that is what the charger is putting into the battery.
After charging, using a multimeter set on 20v DC, and after a couple of hours resting, then check atthe battery terminals.

Thanks for the info i always rely on the indicator, i will probably check tonight as it is unhooked from mains.Damian-Moderator said:
