4. What size is the leisure battery and how long do they last without recharge?

Generally an 85 Ah battery is fitted and if in good health can last up to 36 hours without recharge, if the 12v fridge is kept on low.

5. How is the leisure battery recharged?

In most Danbury converted T2s the leisure battery is charged by the alternator when the engine is running and by a mains charger which activates when the camper is plugged into an electric hook-up socket.

6. What size is the water tank that feeds the 12v tap?

The standards size tank is 10 litres. NB: water must not be drunk direct from the tap – for drinking water we recommend keeping bottled water onboard. Water in the camper tank can however be boiled in a kettle and drunk in tea, coffee etc.

7. What size is the gas cylinder?

Most Danbury T2s use a Campingaz 907 cylinder which holds 2.75kg of gas. Usually enough for a whole season we find.

8. What is the capacity of the fridge?

40 litres.

9. Are Brazilian T2s available in automatic transmission?

Unfortunately not, only the earlier variants from the 1970s had that option.  All Brazilian T2s are manual transmission only.
