WAVE batteries

Hello,
I have to replace the batteries in one WAVE.
Usually I change the GNB Industrial original ones with Exide Marathon M6V190.
This customer is asking for batteries which will provide more working hours (??).

Any suggestions?

hey marky
i'd be glad to try and help with this but can you do us a favor?
can you start a new thread here under your make and model truck or in the technical section so we won't be crossing threads up?
less confusing that way ;o)

thanks

Hi swoop. I have a question. I have a lift that wont start sometimes. It thinks the battery is dead but it's fully charged. Today we use a jumper wire from the battery to the key switch. Wondering what is wrong with it. Its a crown wave. Thank you for your help! - mark

how much more work time is he wanting?
most units are designed to run a single 8hr shift and then need recharging.
If he wants to run more than that he will need an extra battery pack and have a way to change it out.
These batteries run at a 195ah rate, your not going to find anything much more than that in this size battery.
