Mixing battery types is never a good idea. The chemistry is different so they charge/discharge at different rates. If your 12 volts are the unknown junk that came with ours then scrape them.
You can certainly get by with mix and match for the short term but loosing the whole system in the middle of the night goes up. They won't fail at a convenient time.
