UUUUUU EEEEEEE
Post - New Years Hangover Stress - Trauma - Antler Sharpening. Other threads likewise.
Here's some little hints, to foam the beverage...
Scrubber batteries do not have as thick of plates as L-16's.
A 1969 Group 27 CAR BATTERY had EXACTLY the same plates as a 2016 Super Duper RV DEEP CYCLE $150 Trojan does. The 1969 battery had a tar top and no envelope separators. YEAH A CAR BATTERY! Ford Galaxy, Chevrolet Impala, you name it. Hi antimony .065" plates.
A 1969 8-D truck battery also had thick plates. This is why they weighed 150 lbs yet only had 800 CCA.
You folks are swallowing a massive smoke & mirrors campaign but there are no alternatives. This is real ingenuity in action by battery OEM.
My TWIN 2-volt cells barely have 3,200 ampere hours, yet each (with cage) weighs almost one ton.
Select your compromise. Choose wisely.
