We’ve had several reports recently of battery’s overheating and exploding.
One particular incident would have almost certainly ended up in a total loss of the caravan and possibly the family home if we had been half an hour later.
If you get a whiff of a sulphur type smell in the caravan please unplug from the mains immediately and replace your leisure battery.
Touch your battery occasionally to make sure it’s not hot. If it is, please disconnect the mains immediately.
If your battery is over 3 years old this information is even more relevant.
Leisure batteries are like bombs. Please take care
