This year I had pretty much nothing but Van goodies on the Christmas list and I was very lucky. My wife bought me a charger for my leisure battery. My brother and sister in law bought me a mains hook up cable with 2 x 240v sockets on it. My mum bought me a 12v to 240v converter so we can plug 240v appliances into the battery if we wish to.
My mother and father in law bought me a 28 litre Campingaz cooler which is switchable from a cooler to a food warmer - capable of heating up to 65 degrees which will be very handy!
Alpha Batteries also agreed to swap my (unused) acid leisure battery for a gel based one which means it can be charged without needing venting and can also be installed on its side - which I'm hoping will help with the next phase where I come to install the battery and all these accessories into the van. It's due to turn up early in the New Year as it was delayed getting here due to the snow. Pics of the new battery when it turns up.
