The new batteries are built with thinner walls and thinner plates so a 25A is smaller than it was in '46. I recently replaced my battery with a Concorde sealed unit. Their web site http://www.concordebattery.com/ lists both the 25 and 35 amp batteries as applicable to the Coupe: Univair Ercoupe 415C,415CD, Ercoupe 415D,415E Ercoupe 415G, Ercoupe Fornaire F1,F1A: CB35A, RG-35A, RG-35AXC or CB25, RG-25, RG-25XC The weight difference is not great (30lbs vs 23 lbs) so I put a RG-35A in my coupe. It is a sealed 35AH battery. There is also a RG35-axc extra capacity for a few more lbs. You can get the outside dimentions on their web site (the data sheets are available in PDF format). I think I bought my battery from Aircraft Spruce because they include free shipping.
