hi all
our van came with a delkor dc27 calcium battery 80 a.h. and i was hoping to increase capacity by conecting another in parallel, but cannot find a supplier for delkor around
adelaide.
so if i purchase another brand calcium battery 80 a.h. will this be ok?
they will be charged by a c-tek 15000.
or does anyone know of a supplier around
adelaide? thanks. phil

The Delkor won't last long as you cannot make a deep cycle battery in calcium. Best option is to fit a 150Ah single battery.

how do you figure that they have been working fine for many years in many a setup?

thanks guys
i tried independants no go
the battery is only 12 mths old so i didn't wish to replace it,just thought it would be preferable to use same brand to increase capacity.
anyhow thanks again for your comments. regs. phil
