Question for the battery "Gurus", what is the downside of mixing a gel cell with a standard wet cell type? Will I risk overcharging one or the other? Feedback and comments would be appreciated.
Never fix battery types, as they charge differently. Also never add a new battery in parallel with an old battery, as you will soon have two old batteries. When I put six volt batteries in the boat I try to get ones out of the same batch. Have 6 now over 8 years old. Next time I am going to install 8. Chris
