hi all,
just enquiring whether a 85Ah leisure battery would be adequate for a weekend at DSC with a heq5 and some other small bits and pieces.

Tony,

Mine is about 75 ah. I never worry about it as it lasts for hours, I think you would be fine, depends on if you are viewing 6 hours a night or 2, which is most probable.

never managed to flatten mine, although it's now doing sterling work starting my car...

That should last just fine Tony. Trickle charge it real slow.
