Leisure & Starter Battery Help, Digbeth | fleet jumpstart
Digbeth motorhome callouts — split charge relays, leisure banks and starter batteries diagnosed on-site. Fleet & Business Jumpstart, 24/7.
Split charge systems add a third variable. If the relay or DC-DC charger has failed, the leisure bank stops being replenished while driving, and the first sign is usually a fridge that dies overnight.
If your yard in Digbeth sees 3+ battery failures a year, you don't need a garage — you need a mobile partner who prices per job on account and turns up before your morning drops leave.
We invoice monthly with full PDF breakdown per vehicle — clean for accounts to file, VAT-compliant, no per-job card fiddling.
Recent leisure vehicle jobs
Recent job nearby: a motorhome in Digbeth with a perfect starter battery and a leisure bank at 9V. Split charge relay had failed — habitation side was never charging on the move.
Recent job nearby: a converted campervan off M6 J6 (Spaghetti Junction) where a self-installed DC-DC charger was wired to a switched live and only worked with the ignition on.
Testing two systems properly
- Split charge relays and DC-DC chargers are checked for output while the engine runs.
- Starter and leisure banks are tested independently, because a healthy engine battery tells you nothing about the habitation side.
- Single monthly invoice, VAT-compliant, per-vehicle breakdown ready for your fleet accountant
- On a fleet jumpstart the equipment is matched to the vehicle — cranking current, terminal layout and battery location all change the approach.
Storage, standing and split charging
Access matters with larger vehicles — we plan for restricted B5 streets and compound gates before setting off.
Locally that means the streets between Digbeth and Birmingham, with access via M6 J6 (Spaghetti Junction) and A38(M) Aston Expressway and a practical radius reaching Birmingham (~1 mi) and Smethwick (~3 mi).
Motorhome battery questions
Q.Do you cover Digbeth and the B5 area for this?
Yes. Digbeth is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M6 J6 (Spaghetti Junction), roughly 1 miles from Birmingham. We cover it alongside Birmingham and the surrounding streets.
Q.Can you supply and fit batteries at trade price?
Yes — Yuasa, Varta, Bosch and Exide at proper trade rates for account customers, fitted on your yard with OBD coding included.
Q.Do you do preventative fleet audits?
Yes — quarterly on-site checks: voltage, load test, alternator output, terminal condition on every vehicle. Reports emailed to your fleet manager.
Q.My engine starts but the fridge and lights are dead. Which battery is it?
The leisure bank, or the split charge system that feeds it. The starter battery is clearly fine if the engine turns over.
Q.Can I use a starter battery as a leisure battery?
Not sensibly. Starter batteries hate deep discharge and will fail quickly in a habitation role; leisure batteries are built for exactly that cycling.
Q.Do you attend storage compounds?
Yes, provided you can arrange access. Tell us the gate arrangements when you book so the visit is not wasted.
Owners we help
Owners of converted vans with self-installed leisure systems that have stopped charging.
Domestically, converted warehouses and canal-side apartments dominate around here, which shapes how these jobs are accessed and worked.

Where we attend
Digbeth sits about 1 miles from Birmingham, and the same van covers Birmingham (~1 mi), Smethwick (~3 mi) and Sutton Coldfield (~7 mi) on the same run.
Why this is safe to book
- Both electrical systems tested and reported separately, so the actual fault is clear.
- Old batteries removed and recycled on every fleet jumpstart.
Getting ready for a trip?
Have both banks and the split charge system checked before you set off rather than at a campsite. Ask for a fleet jumpstart and quote your postcode — B5 is a routine run for us.

The short version
Leisure vehicles fail in two different ways and the symptoms overlap. Testing both banks and the charging link in Digbeth separates them in one visit. For fleet jumpstart specifically, that means single monthly invoice, vat-compliant, per-vehicle breakdown ready for your fleet accountant
