If you take it to one of the larger battery suppliers they'll test it for you. May take a few days to test it properly

As it happens my 110ah died too.
The sparky did explain about it being potentially too big to run with a split charger.
He explained but it went over my head.
He finished by saying it was a theory that seemed to be gaining momentum.
He recommended I get a 75/85ah battery, so I did.
Only 2 months in though-no problems as yet...

My 110 with this relay above and since I fitted it have never charged it on a charger and no problems. I would recommend it highly.
