Do not forget the water pump usage. I use a 110 amp battery and in the summer months they last about 4 or 5 days. But I probably use a little more than the basic amount. Also do not forget that providing you do not do too much without driving the car you can always plug the car into the S socket and that will provide you with a spare battery supply.

Depends on how many lights and for how long?!

I changed my lights to LED ones as they use much less power.
My caravan is small and old and has 2 LED strip lights - I have used the van for a total of 11 nights and haven't needed to charge the battery up yet.

Well going by the way our's copes,it should do it pretty easily..

We stay off hook up at festival sites,for a week at a time and we've never had a problem...

As long as you go steady with the lighting(..maybe use a battery/windup lantern as well,if in doubt?),I wouldn't  think you'd have a problem.

its the fridge part than i can see being the issue, when u say fridge once we arrive exactly what do u mean ?

Benski,in his OP said that other than for lights,he only needed it to...

"..occasionally ignite water heater and fridge"..

..so going by that, I would assume that he's running the fridge on gas anyway.
