vehicle battery

Hi folks, Battery warning light came on dash as driving home Wednesday night. Thursday morning it stayed off. Took it to a garage to check it over and they said the battery is fine, but obviously could be the alternator. Drove to work (25 miles) and it stayed off. As driving home last night...

Hi everyone, Frank here from Norwich. I bought a lovely second-hand T6 (2017 plate) and was wondering how I could use my Jackery power station to keep the starter battery topped up? Sadly, my van has to live outside since we don't have a garage or other undercover parking opportunity. Last...
