Sorry :D
Did I mention stratification? =))

There’s a couple of sites that have details of a number of types of batteries. They’re not as straight forward as you might think.

Grumps I expect you have a long extension lead kicking about so could you not put the charger on during the day at weekends until you get power in the garage? Doing that once a week would keep the battery topped up nicely.

Yes mate that's the plan for now. @Jjim is calling round this afternoon to have a look at getting the electric upto the garage for me.

Hope the original build included the duct into the garage.
Built sons new garage couple of years ago , put a double socket on each of the three walls, and 4 bulkhead lights in ceiling,works a treat now. All run through its own distribution unit
We got a proper spark into do it , he even had to send copies of Certs to local council, that was the but we could not do ourselves ,his charge was not much more than could get the materials for.
His Lidl charger is connected up to his Land Rover---ser 1 86" over 50 years old and runs a treat, small heater on as he has 4 bikes stored as well.
