why do people always compare one 12 volt battery to 2 6 volt ones? a more proper comparison would be 2 of each.

My old 12v batteries had 220 amp hours each.
My current 4 golf cart 6v batteries have 110 amp hours each.
It seems two golf cart batteries equal one 12v 8D battery.
If you are going to buy and install two 6 volt batteries that should be compared to two 12 volt batteries. comparing costs/weight/etc.

You can compare anything you want. The OP was wondering if one 12v would work for him. You can compare the cost, capacity and life span of one 12v battery to 2 6v batteries all day.
