Batteries Purpose Drive Battery Is the battery that's responsible for starting and running the engine as well as associated services such as ECU's, lights, fan, dashboard, stereo and so on. These batteries are designed to unload significant power to start the vehicle, then be immediately recharged by the alternator and kept at a high state of charge. These batteries will suffer if they are regularly discharged by more than 20%.

Structure/Build Motorhomes Most motorhomes available in the UK/Europe are built onto an existing vehicle, usually a van (Ducato/Boxer/Daily etc). The general structure of these are wood laminate with metal framework. There is generally an outer skin which is Plastic, then a support which is usually ply, then insulation, then internal walls, then decor. There may be a gap between the inner and outer layers or it may be solid or glass fibre insulation.
