To add, the Concorde Owners manual will give the battery voltage recommendations for prior to installation.

However, you may also want to verify your aircraft electrical system has no parasitic drains and that the charging system is adjusted to spec since the previous battery only lasted for 2 years. And if you find the aircraft doesn't fly often perhaps invest in a proper Concorde trickle charger to maintain the battery charge and health.
