OMC Rectifier Warning

[divo]

I have been searching for a deal on a rectifier for my outboard and came across this warning on one of the websites

"OMC REGULATOR 35AMP CROSSFLOW. Warning!! Walmart and AutoZone marine batteries are incompatible with this regulator. The Duralast and Everstart batteries are overcharging and even a new regulator will fail. New circuits are being experimented with.

OE # : 583268

OMCREGULATOR # 193-5204"

Bieng that this rectifier is around $200 big ones....I really dont want to smoke it cause I got the wrong battery. Is this warning valid? If so, are all other batteries ok?

Re: OMC Rectifier Warning

Rectifier #193-5204 is a CDI rectifier manufactured by Rapair.com.

If you have concerns about battery compatibility with ignition and charging components, it would be better to contact Rapair.com.

Almost any rectifier, alternator or generator is incompatible with some battery[ies].
