Hi Joe,

Charge it at least every other day.  It's a mistake to allow it to discharge too far and will shorten its life.

Cheers,

Ian

Ps.  My chap Greg came to me the other day and said he'd leafletted a road in Minster and on the drive of the last house was this window cleaners van with "Peake Clean" on it.  I said: "Oh that's alright, don't worry about him" :P ;D ;D ;D

Only kidding.

Hope things are going ok for you.

in theory if your pump draws 1  amp to make it work it will last 85hrs or if your pump draws 85 amps to make it work ( dont worry they dont) it will last 1 hr thats how it is worked out if you see what I mean. 85 ah should last for couple of days at least.
