We need a new leisure battery for our double axle 2019 Crusader Zephyr. It has an AWD mover by Powrtouch and the existing battery can’t really handle it

Any recommendations for a top capacity top performing leisure battery suitable for a big outfit?  Thanks in advance

The Powrtouch engineer I spoke to on the phone asked me to look at the van voltage readout when the mover was in use - it went down to 10v and lower. He said this was the problem - the mover relies upon a good level of capacity in the battery and this wasn't the case with ours.

I only have a single mover but it does say in the user manual that the mover will cease to work at below 11.5v, and when this happens there is i think a red light? that flashes on the front panel of the mover.
