NAPA 8146 Replacement Coach Batteries

[teddyu]

Need to replace the coach batteries and am looking at a set of NAPA 8146 batteries. Anyone have any experience with this model GC2 batteries? Thanks in advance for the help.

Check the build date too.

For what it is worth. NAPA Batteries have a nationwide warrant, good at any NAPA Store. Most NAPA stores also have the ability to load test and know how to use a hydrometer.

I would keep my receipt as sometimes the label om the battery are hard to read and the receipt makes it very clear when it was purchased.

Happy Camping.

I have a two -year old pair of the 226AH ones (GC135 is one of their names 🙂 ) Doing very well. I keep them banked with a pair of Interstate GC2 XHDs (232AH) as my four 6s. (Also doing well)

8146 looks good to me.

Ask the NAPA store who manufactured them. That's easier and more accurate. NAPA has a variety of vendors. Any other answer would be guesswork.
