I put the RG 25 in my 415C and seem to have plenty of cranking power.

Linda. The 35 amp batteries fit the battery tray perfectly. It seems that
the original 24 amp batteries used to be bigger, but lighter. The 24 amp
battery is smaller and one needs to add some spacers around them, but they are
sufficient for the job and less weight.
They are also cheaper. I went with the 24 amp battery recently and feel
good about the lesser 9 pounds in the back.
If your mechanic wants to go with the 35 amp battery , it is understandable
, because they fit the tray perfectly. But just show him the Memorandum and ask
him why he insists on installing a battery he needs to gain a field approval
for.

Univair Service Memorandum No. 67 contains a chart of batteries
approved for various models. It shows the Concorde CB-25 or Concorde
RG-25 are approved for use in the 415-C. Does that mean it would be
illegal to use a Concorde-35, even if it could fit? (One mechanic
wants me to use a Concorde-35 if possible, and I don't want to
trouble figuring out if it would fit, if that would not be a legal
installation.) Thanks -
