Lead Acid & AGM Leisure Batteries

Lead acid leisure batteries are a popular entry-level solution, offering an affordable and widely compatible option for camper van electrics. These batteries are well suited to basic setups and weekend use, providing steady power for everyday 12V applications. The Wired Campers range includes options such as Xplorer Energy 110Ah, 120Ah and 135Ah lead acid leisure batteries, giving flexibility depending on your power requirements.

For improved performance, AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) leisure batteries offer a more advanced solution. AGM batteries are fully sealed, maintenance-free and non-spillable, making them safe for installation inside your camper van. They also provide better deep cycle performance, allowing deeper discharge and faster recharging compared to traditional flooded lead acid batteries.

The collection includes high-capacity AGM options such as Expedition Plus AGM deep cycle batteries in sizes like 115Ah, 150Ah, 200Ah and 260Ah, making them suitable for more demanding setups with solar systems, inverters or extended off-grid use. These batteries are designed to handle repeated charge and discharge cycles, making them a reliable choice for camper van living.

AGM technology is particularly well suited to modern camper van builds, as it supports higher current draw and improved charging efficiency—ideal when paired with DC-DC chargers, solar MPPT controllers or mains battery chargers. Their sealed design also reduces maintenance requirements and improves safety in mobile environments.
