Hi Ant (or anyone else who could help!!)
I have a charger in the front storage thingy on my caravan which is a Lucas charger. It has a rocker switch with three settings - on/off/battery. It has a connection to the leisure battery with clamps and I wondered whether this charges the battery whilst on EHU and which setting to put it on if so.
I've connected the EHU and the needle is moving from zero (in the red) on the battery switch, just wondered if this was actually charging the leisure battery (also housed in the storage thingy). It doesn't move on the off position (not surprising as off is off) and also the needle doesn't move if I switch it to on. But it starts going up when switched to battery.
Sorry if I haven't explained myself very well, first time I've seen one of these.
The caravan also has twin electric sockets although I only have single (for the indicators and so on... I believe that the twin socket only keeps your fridge going on 12v whilst you're moving anyway, so I don't think it matters if I don't have twin electrics whilst on the move - or is that how the charger works? :confused:
Thanks for any replies! Here's a pic of the gadjet....
