Gerry underwood Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Good morning on this fine sunny day. We are going to be changing our leisure batteries for 12v 220 ah. Will I need to change our connectors cables as the current batteries are only 110ah?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No - not because of the increased capacity of the batteries, BUT, maybe YES because the original cables may no longer reach the terminals. My 220AH batteries have both terminals at one end of the battery so the wiring may need extending. Will they fit into your battery box ? Also be aware that they weigh 53 - 58 kgs each. Can you lift them into the battery box ? (I have to lower mine down thru the cabin floor on a rope) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Brooks Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 The old batteries probably used taper post and clamp terminals the new ones might use a bolt & eye terminals so check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
