An argument can be made that the battery with less resistance gets slightly higher current and therefore charges slightly faster. And if charging is interrupted prior to both batteries reaching 100% state of charge (say one at 70% and other at 60% as an example) then the two "should" equalize to a common voltage. Some "experts" claim this is inefficient, but I'm not sure it would be a deal breaker for me.
I would not discard a good battery (or two) just because it's a little different, unless they are so small that they don't contribute much anyway. That's why I'd confirm the capacity of the Dekas. Something doesn't seem right with the 75 A-hour rating.  |
The batteries are the Deka Promaster 75 amps @ 120 min
