Are you thinking of installing a solar panel on the roof in the future? If so it can be wited to charge the leisure batteries AND the starter battery.

No do not want a permanent one , I have a large suitcase type panel , but to large for windshield

Put the fold open suitcase type solar panel on dash board and its now charging my leisure battery up from 11.00 volts to 13.6 volts so now happy with that at the moment
