You just need to be selective when you purchase the replacement. Here in N C, I have substituted a single 12 volt battery in all my 12 equipment that formerly had two batteries. I use Deka brand and I feel that these deliver the amps stated on the label. Never consider substituting car batteries for diesel tractor applications, you will only be disappointed. A single battery of high enough amperage will perform better for you than the original setup. Good luck.
