My apologies in advance as im sure this will have been posted before however I couldnt find it when using the forum search function so I thought id post it. Although out of my league technically I was curious to know where the leisure battery actually sits and found the following:

What you've found is corblimeys instructions for the leisure battery.
I followed and fitted the LB using the instructions a couple of years ago.
there is now a kit you can buy from ebay that does the job very well.
I still have the original wiring and its working well.

Hi peeps

Can the alternator charge three batteries? Two in the Bongo with a wilinton relay, and when charging a leisure battery in a caravan. Would a self switching relay do the job wired between the Bongo main battery, or the Bongo leisure battery? Wouild the strain be to much for the alternator.

Is ther any other Bongo peeps out there with caravans being towed with willinton equiped Bongos?
