After my recent electrical debacle (https://forums.justcommodores.com.au/threads/electrical-help-wires-in-battery-compartment.290101/) I was looking into a potential new battery.
All the big boys like century, exide etc. list specifically that the charging rate of the battery must not exceed 14.7 volts.
I could not find the specifics for ACDelco.
The VF voltage reading is often enough >14.7.
Of course it's easy enough to say just stick in the same ACDelco (they are dirt cheap especially wiht trade price) and not worry especially since they last so long but l am interested in people's opinion on this voltage matter.
To be clear, I am not getting a new battery I got a new one last year - the ACDelco AGM one. Works well.
