Battery questions

Post by DaveM »

Hi all,
looking at upgrading the Safari batteries, as I've been having a few problems recently.

Question is, which Orbital batteries to go for? I don't run an electric winch etc, but thought a deep cycle for camping etc might be good, and the deep cycle seems to be better all round anyway.

What are the pros/cons if I went for the deep cycle? I've been told that they don't like being fully discharged, is this true (not that I would be making a habit of it).


Part.Number......ORB75DT-84.....ORB34DC
Amphr....................45..............50
CCA.at.0.F............690.............750
CCA.at.32.F..........850.............950
ResCap.mins.@.25A..80............100
Dims.LxWxH.mm...225.x.175.x.200....250.x.170x200


Thanks in advance,
Dave
