To go from a 7ah standard gel cell to the same battery with 12 amp hours
would be a 70% increase in power, but the key will be manufacturers who
will modify their existing battery holders so they will accept a wider
battery such as the one linked below.

My glider came with a box that was sized for a 12ah battery. Are other
manufacturers still shipping new gliders with undersized battery boxes?
