LPD has a wide range
of caravan and leisure batteries incorporating flooded, sealed
flooded, Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM), GEL and pure lead manufacturing
processes, to supply you with all the portable energy you
may need for semi-traction purposes. The leisure ranges of
batteries come from some of the leading manufacturers around
the world manufactured to exacting standards and quality.
If you are planning a longer trip or you wish to keep your
leisure battery fully charged at all times, don't forget
to look at our range of solar
panels and solar
lighting kits. Also to
protect your battery during transportation
or for a camping trip why not keep it safe in one of
our practicle battery
box that will suit any
battery size up to L 356mm x W 208mm x H 228mm
Flooded Lead Acid (FLA) – Probably
the most common battery used by the caravanning fraternity.
Each individual cell can be accessed for maintenance purposes.
FLA leisure batteries are ideal for your caravan, mobile
home or camping trip. These batteries have carrying handles
for easy transportation, built in state of charge indicator
and base hold downs for clamping on certain part numbers.
Sealed Flooded Lead Acid (SFLA) – SFLA
batteries have been developed to take the leisure battery
to the next level of high performance with added safety and
convenience. The deep cycle technology used in the manufacture
of these batteries ensures you get maximum performance for
every trip. Anti-flashback safety labyrinths built into the
lid prevents any possibility of a spark causing the ignition
of charge and discharge gasses. Being totally sealed there is no need for maintenance (except charging after each use)
and they are completely leak proof. These batteries have
a built in state of charge indicator, carrying handles and
dual terminals and base hold downs for clamping on certain
part numbers.
Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) – AGM batteries
are totally sealed and as the electrolyte has been absorbed
into glass mat separators there is no chance of leakages.
AGM batteries give excellent deep cycle capability, high
start performance and low self discharge so they will always
be ready to perform. Another advantage is that they are Valve
Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) batteries. The battery lid is
constructed with a labyrinth of valves which in effect directs
the gases produce under load or charging back into the battery.
GEL - Gel batteries are similar to AGM
batteries except that an immobilised electrolyte is used.
GEL batteries are more tolerant to deeper cycling and have
a very low self discharge compare to FLA and SFLA batteries.
For caravans and mobile homes, GEL batteries were specially
designed for maintenance free, on-board mains power supply.
Whether you choose the Numax or Sonnenschein brand, pound for pound,
you will find GEL hard to beat for all round performance
and reliability.
Pure Lead and Spiral Wound – Odyssey and
Optima batteries
are sealed pure lead batteries so there is no chance of any
leaks whatever the angle of operation. These batteries can
be fitted on there side or indeed upside down. They will
work even when the case has been cracked or under water.
With extremely low self discharge the Odyssey battery can
be left on the shelf for up to 2 years (depending on certain
conditions). They are extremely resilient to deep discharge
ideal for caravanning or the mobile home. They also have
excellent deep discharge recovery and their performance for
size can make them ideal for your camping trip.
