Hi. Where would people recommend for leisure battery sales in Ireland. Can anywhere match Tayna for price even with £60 shipping to Derry they still have 4 yr warranty on a 240amp hr enduroline for £290 or varta lfd for £300?

It's a set up that can off grid for a decent amount of time and run compressor fridge. Motorfactors are useless for leisure batteries. I know what I need, I'm just looking for a supplier in ireland as all decent batts I can find are in uk and shipping is an issue. The irish suppliers online have poor online presence and their prices are high.

Halfords dont do what I need in terms of price or capacity.

If you have the option the Varta lfd batteries are regarded as the best on the market.

If you are a member of the hymerowners Facebook group discounts are available from Alpha batteries.

I got them delivered from Leisure Batteries Ireland
I just had a look at the invoice which says 2 x DC27 = €266.00 and that included delivery.
The contact details at the time were phillip@leisurebatteriesireland.ie or call at +44 754 053 8060.
AFAIK Leisure Batteries Ireland seems to be a second trading name of a company who specialise is also supplying to industry.
