The lower voltage batteries are used to minimize battery weight.
Interesting,, The following is on the Lifeline Batteries web site :
GPL-4CT Six volt 66 pounds 220 amp hours
For 12 volt you need two that's 132 pounds
GPL-4DL 12 volt 124 pounds 210 amp hours
GPL-8DA 12 volt 168 pounds 255 amp hours
Looks to me like the pounds per amp hour is dang close no matter the voltage.
