A good fall back position, thanks ActivecampersI'd not overly worry about LA leisure battery. Just get a correct size battery from any car place and worry about it when you get home and have time to research.

I'd like to thank everyone for their advice and responses to my post.We're 3 weeks in to an 8 week trip, currently on the West Coast of Portugal about 100 miles north of Lisbon. Our leisure battery looks as though it has breathed its last, as the voltage went down quicker than the sun last night.
I spent all morning ringing potential suppliers in Figueira da Foz & Coimbra without success, including 'battery specialists'. Only one had a leisure battery, but it was too big for my battery box, which is a through floor so not easy to modify.
I'm not looking for anything fancy, a plain lead acid replacement of the original 100Ah Banner 957 51 or it's equivalent.
I'm figuring that Lisbon is my best chance on Monday, or pitch up somewhere and order on-line for delivery.
Has anyone any suggestions?
Wow, that could be a good deal for someone. Thanks gus-lopez.Just a follow on to this now that you are sorted. Carrefour in spain stock lead acid starter batteries & at present are doing 50% discount on purchases in next two weeks,.additionally they test the battery at customer services after the till & write the voltage on the receipt & sign it.usually fully charged at 12,78v or they change it for another
There's an excellent place in Tomar. Just outside the town, agricultural superstore. Good batteries and very helpful. Trying to find the name. Will post if I find it.We're 3 weeks in to an 8 week trip, currently on the West Coast of Portugal about 100 miles north of Lisbon.
