Sam's Club sells Duracell brand 6V AGMs which are affordable and convenient to get. My Sam's Club 6Vs are now 3 years old and are still doing great.
Ron .... that's strange.
I wonder why Sam's Club offers 6V deep cycle AGM batteries, but not 12V deep cycle AGM batteries?
Either one lasts for years, but the 12V sizes may fit into more stock RV battery compartments better ... so that other precious storage areas don't have to be sacrificed so as to be able to use 6V golf cart batteries in order to get deep cycle performance.
It's simple: Lots of people buy lots of golf cart batteries to power lots of golf carts. Not so many people buy 12V deep cycle batteries to power RVs. The market for the one is much bigger than for the other, and so they stock the popular one and not the unpopular one.
