So yes as stated previously in other threads, the HLB700 is the same as a L36-EFB, however when we looked last year Halfords were offering a year or two less warranty and no delivery option. The CB516-3 should support one 90Ah AGM battery no problem. But I can't see it supporting 190Ah of AGM's for long, that is equivalant to 380Ah of wet batteries in loading terms. data-parent="#accordion-3">

How long a leisure battery lasts will depend on many variables, and these include:

• The power requirements of a vehicle’s electrical consumers
• Whether it’s been used on or off grid
• Length of trips away and subsequent usage
• Usage with high-power consumers such as motor movers
• How well it has been maintained

While many presume a battery is a ‘fit and forget’ product, in reality, it requires

Explosion of the battery or fire is also not unknown with AGM batteries, which are more prone to Thermal Runaway than other Lead batteries. YBX Active EFB and AGM utilise the latest in next generation battery technology to provide greater endurance, more available cycles and faster charging. AGM also offers maximum safety with spill proof internal construction.

Yes 14.4v will give the best compromise between fast charging without overcharging with the resultant internal corrosion. Using a 13.2v float charge rate will protect the battery but may also reduce the efficiency of the system enormously, so not sure that is the best option? Hence Yuasa launching their latest Leisure battery, the new Yuasa L36-EFB with best in class performance at 'Budget' money. GS Yuasa located in Japan, all started in 1895 and is one of the biggest battery manufacturers in the world. Manufacturing batteries for the automotive, commercial and infrastructure markets. Yuasa Battery, Inc. based in the US has been manufacturing batteries since 1979 and is one of the leading manufacturer and distributor of batteries for motorcycles, ATVs (all-terrain vehicles), snowmobiles, personal watercraft, scooters and much more. Over many decades, the Yuasa name has been recognised as the top premier battery brand globally. The cold air inside the bags is then prevented from spilling out when the door is opened, resulting in the Fridge staying Cold and the compressor not energising.

I have never been able to find out what the CB516 charges the Starter battery at when it is set for an AGM battery. Does it charge the Starter battery with the same voltage as the AGM Leisures or is it at the correct 14.4v?Most of all don't forget that an appliance that is designed to work on 14v isn't going to be at it's best at even 12.3v, let alone 11.9v. In my experience the Voltage control of Solar regulators is too course. Even when the electronics is accurate, and they are often way out in real operation plus the limits are inappropriate. Most people are unable to see that how the charger functions, both mains and solar, can have a huge impact and why the best Solar chargers, like our favoured Votronic, can make an enormous difference by just the tiniest parameter being altered. On a battery bank of 180Ah discharged to 50% the remainder of the 90Ah drawn will go in at about 13.8v and low amps, potentially meaning 72Ah takes nearly 70 hours or 3 days!!! It is then advisable to factor in a 20% safety margin as the figures used for the capacity calculation can go up or down.
