Benimar Mileo 282 (2022) - Room for 2 leisure batteries?

[stevel]

Before we use our motorhome next year (probably Feb) I expect we will need to change the leisure battery as we‘ve had a few ‘no battery’ problems this year. I’ve not had a look to see where the current battery is but would anyone know if there is enough space under the seat for two leisure batteries or do you need to place a second one under the drive’s seat?

On a 2022 van it might be prudent to identify and fix the fault or problem first before upgrading to additional/ new batteries.
If you're on a Fiat chassis, generally, there's some space, and provision under the seat bases, but I'm not familiar with the specific van layout,so some pictures would help to give more accurate advice.
P.S. under seat base batteries can generally only be 190mm tall.

On our 2015 202 the factory fit leisure battery was under the passenger seat, there was wiring already installed under the driver's seat for a second battery.

Careful with your payload. You barely have enough for loose change in your pockets with those vans let alone extra batteries!
(Unless you uprated of course)
