Do I need to do a Battery delete with a C-MAX bank?Yes, because if you were to run it with an lead acid or AGM battery the lead/AGM battery tends to rest a lot lower when the vehicle is off which in turn would draw your C-MAX bank down and essentially kill the bank.
-
Can I run CMAX with AGM or Lead Acid?NO! these two batteries do not mix well. for safety reasons do not.
