leisure battery / willinton wiring
Posted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 11:45 am
Hi
I've just managed to get a leisure battery at very little more than the UK price..RESULT...!!!...so now it's time to fit the Willinton kit i've had sculling around since last year...In the past, i've just charged a spare battery, and stuck it on the battery tray under the bonnet, but we might get to do some camping soon....hopefully!..
Question....I'm swapping the radio and power sockets over to the LB, but I'm hesitant to swap the lights, as I have a CAT 1 alarm with sensing using the door contacts / lights, but I'm swapping to a more sophisticated one...so, as the alarm has a power from ignition as well as permanent...is there any problem having a switch circuit on leisure , and another via the switched live on the starter..??...it seems that this could be the source of some problems I hear mentioned!?
I'm quite happy to fit auxiliary lights if needed?!
Cheers
Helen
