Hi

My batteries are reaching the end of their lives and I have realised that the previous owner had installed wet (lead acid XV31MF ) batteries rather than gel batteries. As the batteries no longer seem to hold charge and appear to be putting out hydrogen gas I would like to replace them with more suitable batteries.

My JC is a 2003 model, could anyone recommend Gel or AGM battery that would be a good fit for the battery bay? Also are any adjustment required to switch between battery types?

Longer term I would like to add solar charging so ideally I would like a battery type that would be suitable for that use.

Thanks in advance for any help

Conor

Westfalia verbaut ab Werk die Exide Gel ES950. Die passen perfekt in die Aussparung des Wassertanks.
Viele von uns haben damit sehr gute Erfahrungen gemacht. Manche haben aber auch auf AGM umgerüstet und sind auch zufrieden.
