Delkor MF200 Battery
Submitted by Ashen on Mon, 2014-07-14 11:39
Hi guys
Just bought a secondhand Delkor MF200 battery on gumtree for a cheap $60! It is in good condition (green colour in hydrometer). There is no description as to whether it is a deep cycle or not, previous owner doesn't know. The description on the battery is as follows:
Maintenance free
200AH @ 20ah rate
Reserve 430amps
CCA 1000 amps
Can someone shed some light as to whether the battery is deep cycle/hybrid? Google didnt return any useful info..
Thanks

You will get 200 amp/hours
You will get 200 amp/hours out of it if you pull a 10 amp rate. ( Will take 1200 minutes / 20 hours )
You will get 179 amp/hours out of it if you pull a 25 amp rate ( Will take 430 minutes / 7.2 hours ) ie RESERVE CAPACITY.
Apparently the fact that it states capacity as well, instead of just CCA, is a good sign that it may be some type of deep cycle battery.
Spent way too long googling this shit when I should have been working...
