Group GC2 Alternatives and Closest Battery Groups by Dimensions

There are no direct interchangeable alternatives for group GC2 battery if we speak about dimensions, but if your battery space hasn't strict limits, you can choose a little bigger or smaller battery group. If your battery compartment cannot accommodate a larger battery, you can choose a smaller one. In both cases, you must securely fasten your new battery with a battery holder. If your battery holder can't hold the alternative battery group, you can buy a universal battery holder to fit in different types of batteries.

Similar Battery Groups With the Same Length, Width and Voltage

These dimensions will fit you in 99% of cases when you want to use a different battery group instead of a GC2 battery since most battery compartments have a height margin and strict limitations on height and width only, which match batteries in the table below. Please check the battery compartment before you buy a battery from this group.

How to Get 12 Volts from 6V of a GC2 Battery Group

If you need 12 Volts, you can connect two group GC2 batteries in series to double the voltage. The voltage of a series connection is equal to the sum of the voltages of all its batteries. If one 6V lead-acid battery is connected to another 6V lead-acid battery, you have 12V total power output. Each battery must be fully charged and completely isolated from the other before connecting them in series, or there will be damage to at least one of them.

Increasing a Capacity of GC2 Batteries with a Parallel Connection

If you need to increase current capacity and reduce charging time, connect batteries in parallel. When group GC2 batteries are in parallel, their voltage is equal to the voltage of one battery, while current capacity equals to the sum of all its battery capacities. If you have two 6V lead-acid batteries with 30 Ah capacity and you connect them in parallel, you'll get 6 Volts with 60 Ah.
