Very close in price. My problem with 12's is that my tray is too narrow. Four 6's (430ah)sit side by side but only two 12's (310ah) end to end. Mine had group 24's in it from the original owner and one of them was still working after 14 years!!! That's HALF a CAREER!!! I think it was an interstate.
155 AH $200.00
150 AH for $195
215 AH for $170 + extra core @ $15.00=$185
So what's better or easier on the life of these three hypothetical battery packs? Pulling off of 430 ah or pulling off of 315 ah? or 300ah of trojan?
I go down 100 ah or so per night so 2 Trojan 12's would cut my weight and still probably deliver what I need? Could I realistically pull 100 off the 150 available in the Trojan. I know there is no way I could pull 200 of my 430 gc 2 right now. It would probably be down around 11.5???? I have been down 120 and showed 11.9 or so. Guess I need to experiment.
I could shed 75 pounds
