Now on our second motor mover .... spanning 5 different 'vans.

How did we manage before?  Don't know!

Useful and a whole heap of fun!!

Last year I had to use a car battery on the van for a couple on months due to a dead leisure battery. It was only 55ah but managed to operate the mover to get the van on to a very awkward, long drive with no problems at all - around 8 minutes of use. It still showed no signs of dying after this.

As discussed on here previously, the higher capacity batteries don't push out an extra punch, they'll just take longer to discharge.

I think as long as you have a healthy, well looked after battery you don't need anything bigger than 85ah unless you use non-ehu.
