Leisure battery storage box

[Richtee180]

Can anyone recommend a leisure battery storage box they have bought.
I was thinking of putting the battery in the metal shed in between charges.

What sort of box are you thinking of?

Ours just sits in the shed and gets a trickle charge once a month.

I was thinking of a plastic box, won't the battery freeze out in the shed?
I was tempted to wrap it in a duvet and give it a cup of lemsip from time to time.

Batteries sit in cars at dealerships throughout winter. If you go skiing in Scotland or Europe you don’t remove the battery. It’s acid not water.

They're fine as long as they're kept reasonably charged, but will freeze if allowed to discharge too much in freezing temperatures. To be fair, if the battery is allowed to discharge to the point that it will freeze in the UK it's likely to be damaged regardless of the temperature.
