6 volt batteries
Hi, Anyone out there who can comment on the best place in the states to purchase 6 volt batteries equivalant to the Trojan T 105 golf car batteries.
Last set of 8 lasted 5 years so I am inclined to go with the Trojan again but ...ouch...135 bucks apiece now. Heard that some Costcos have an
equivalant cheaper. My local Costco does not stock them. Comments please

i bought two last winter for a friend
i think they were $140 each
costco in the states does not carry them
i read the same post and was looking for them at costco too
try http://partsonsale.com
they will have a good price and you'll get fresh batteries
very few places will carry them "in-stock" unless you go to a RV store
then...you pay more

Batteries have really taken a jump in price this last year. Lead is incredibly expensive.
Even though the AGM glass mat batteries are double the price of a regular battery, they last four to five times longer. Most high end RV's have them
installed.
Here are two sources for the batteries, and AMS ships them for free. I just purchased some from them.

Sam's club in Yuma --
About $65.00 the last time I looked . Costco is about $75. for the same one .

The batteries I use at my Beach House came from there. Great service and extremely clean store.
Haven't had a bad trip yet....
