I use my Berlingo in micro camping mode for hiking and do not always drive again before the next days walk so I wondered about depleting the leisure battery.
The leisure battery is fitted in the boot area of my Berlingo; it was professionally fitted. I use a cigarette lighter extension lead from it which it more convenient to use to fuel my small kettle or recharge my phone. If I remove these items from the extension cable but do not remove the cable from the battery i.e the red light is still showing is fuel still being taken from the battery? To unplug the cable easily means inconveniently going outside and into the boot. I am thinking not, I guess a bit for the red light, but someone with more electrical knowledge than me (not difficult) would have the definitive answer.
