Greetings, Gang!
The time has finally come to replace the two Trojan T-105s that I got in 1999!
They'd probably go a couple more years with tender care and smooth solar charging, but they finally just won't hold a charge to my satisfaction. I have used and abused them but also added water and desulfated them regulary. They truly kept on ticking!
I'm battery shopping, and have found a place here in Albuquerque that sells the T-105s for $113 each. Nowadays, this is an excellent price. The cheapest I've seen in the last few months is $130 each. (I paid $65 for them new in 1999.) The same place also sells Deka 6v golf cart batteries for $89. I've checked old posts on the Forum from 2007, and am curious to see if anyone here has had more recent experience with the Dekas.
I don't want to be penny wise and pound foolish here. Any input?
TIA,
