Duracell Ultra 6V Golf Cart Battery

Does anyone use these Duracell Ultra 6V Golf Cart Batteries from Batteries plus? Only $99 when ordered online and picked up in-store. Want to get 2 6 volt golf cart batteries to start with, then maybe got to 4 eventually. The price for those Trojans is just a little steep.

  • I put 4 DURA CELL 6 volts from Sams along with 2 31 series Dura Cells in our coach two years ago with no problems to date. keep terminals clean, electrolyte topped and equalize every six months and all is well.
  • My golf cart batteries came from Sam's Club, and I think they're Duracell branded. (I can't tell for sure without pulling them out of the battery holder in my motorhome, and I'm not about to do that on a night like this.) They were about $90 each all told, and would have been a little less if I were a full member rather than making use of a one-day trial membership coupon. Both Sam's Club and Costco have golf cart batteries at around this price in many locations.

    Duracell doesn't manufacture lead acid batteries, but just relabels ones made by one (or more) of the handful of actual manufacturers, the same as quite a few other brands. My batteries were made by East Penn (that part of the label is visible), whatever their brand may be. They seem to be working as advertised.

    If you do get pairs of batteries at different times, be careful to keep the pairs together so that each series chain of two batteries has batteries of identical age.
