I’ve used Delco Voyagers for years. Get 7-8 years service. At about $100-110
apiece they’re good value.
Reviews are very good. Professional bass fishermen love them.

Just tuned in to this string.
Has anyone recommended the Costco batteries? I use 4 x 6-volt golf cart
batteries. They are under $140 Cdn and can be replaced at any Costco outlet if
you have issues.
Another good policy someone told me about years ago is to buy all your
batteries from the same
Paul — one spec you didn’t list was weight. I think you’ll find the Trojans to
be heavier than the Sam’s Club batteries; this means heavier plates and longer
life, as well as better resistance to abuse from under-charging or
over-discharging.

By contrast, my Trojan T105 golf cart batteries run around $150.00 each; a pair
