Squadron Energy & Platinum Batteries:  Lucas XV Supreme Battery ExampleSquadron themselves are no longer with us so Energy batteries are no more. Many of the original Energy batteries were made available through another supplier as 'Platinum' but ongoing supply chain problems and price rises mean we've now discontinued these (along with many other retailers). We're now pleased to offer the excellent range of Lucas / Numax batteries as pictured right and described below.

A word of caution:  Because leisure batteries situated in the living areas of motorhomes are in an enclosed space, and because under some circumstances escaping charge gasses can explode, all camper batteries should be totally sealed or be vented to the outside or have special flame arresting vents. This is one of the reasons that GEL are favoured by manufacturers because most are properly and totally sealed - as also are our AGM range below. Unfortunately the term 'sealed' doesn't always mean what we think it means - persistent enquiries about several budget 'sealed' batteries on the internet produced responses along the lines of "Thank you for your enquiry. It is sealed only in the sense that the battery cannot be topped up ... this battery must be fitted in a vented space". This is also true of our budget SFL range which are only 'sealed' in the maintenance sense. Anyway - do beware when purchasing, not everyone really knows what their 'sealed' means but we do and we're honest about it too!  Our AGM And GEL ranges are fully sealed - you can even use then on their sides! 

Lucas Batteries - Leisure / Marine Supreme:  Lucas Leisure Battery (XV range dual posts shown inset) World renowned brand offering original equipment (OE/OEM) quality standards, giving assurance that the batteries will not let the customer down. Batteries are manufactured on the same equipment as OE batteries and use the same components to give a consistent quality and performance. Calcium technology is used on these leisure ranges. Twin battery posts are fitted to the 'Supreme' XV range as illustrated in the inset left. You can have confidence in the highly regarded Lucas brand and UK-wide coverage ensures the customer is never far from help if he does break down. Lucas batteries are recyclable, helping to protect the environment.

Battery Selection:
  These guides are from one of our earlier ranges but illustrate the different characteristics of the different battery types. The latest batteries may have a slightly different set of figures (usually improved) but all the general trends are the same.

Battery Selection Guide

Battery Cyclic Life Guide


Carriage: There are special carriage arrangements for lead-acid batteries which are delivered via a specialist carrier / insurance, so do please note the higher carriage charges on these items - £20 per delivery even of multiple batteries. It actually costs us more than this but we are pleased to subsidise this to help out! 

Saving on carriage:  Save on multiples! For orders of multiples of the same battery the site will only charge a single standard £20 'battery carriage'. If you order mixed types - which is unusual - the site may automatically charge £20 for each type but we promise to promptly refund any excess to you. On these mixed orders you can for a deal If you prefer. Why not team up with friends to save money here? - All must be delivered to the same address of course to qualify for the delivery savings.  Buy Now >>>
