If your old battery is a 12 volt and is in good shape, there is no problem adding a new 12 volt battery of about the same size (flooded or VRLA). Just be sure it is in parallel (positive to positive and negative to negative). You should not mix flooded batteries with AGM or gel (for best results) as they need slightly different charging profiles.
