Hi all
We have a Harmony Auto sleeper on a Peugeot Boxer, can anybody tell me if the leisure battery as well as being charged by the alternator when running is also being charged  when hooked up to mains confused3

Yes the leisure battery will be charged when on hookup.
However you must make sure the charger is switched on for this to happen. (left hand cupboard O/S at the back on mine)

Just a word of caution, don't start the engine with the hookup lead connected and on the mains.

You can blow a fuse, a friend with a Symbol 2000 petrol has done that.
