where you can get 6s for under $100, then 6s win on cost by a bunch.
Yes, but it's so hard to compare battery life between Sam's Club etc. 6 volts, vs. Trojan sixes. You won't go wrong with Trojans. It's harder to be sure with other brands. I've noticed that people who buy Trojans, usually know what they are doing, which means they treat the batteries right. That's the critical requirement for long battery life.
I eventually went with SC, which were roughly half the price of Trojans, figuring that if I screwed up, the cost of that failure was less, and if I didn't, they only had to last a bit over half the life to make the cost the same.
