Code 24 or group 24 (75 amp hours about 15 useable per battery)
GC-2 are the same foot print but taller. 2 in series give 12 volts 220 amp hours 110 usable that's over 3 times the power for about the same price.
And about 10 times the cost....
Ten times the cost?
Down here in the GTA there is about $20 difference between a group 24 and GC2 6 volt battery.
The battery I got was about $130. It is a 12 volt. I would need 2 of those 6 volts at about $600 each. That is about 10 times the cost.
I don’t know where you’re battery shopping, but even Chinese (CDN) Tire, known for over-priced junk, sells GC-2 batteries for $175 each.
I bought two recently from a golf cart distributor in Newmarket, they were $148 each.
