Sam's Duracell 6v Battery Dimensions
FWIW since Sam's website doesn't list the dimensions for the following 2 batteries I called the manufacturer & got the info from them: GC2 10 1/4 L 7 1/8 W 10 7/8 H EGC2 10 1/4 L 7 1/...

It's a stupid battery, not a pipe fitting or pair of eyeglasses.
Your "differences" amount to tenths of thousands of inches.
No one cuts mounting clearances with even close to that degree of resolution.
It sounds like you believe that the equipment you've had/have coupled with your RV experience/knowledge has you believing you are 'the' be-all/end-all authority on all things RV. Sorry to burst your bubble but you're not. It's a big RV world out there & there's an infinite # of ways to skin a cat. Your non-problem can/is very often someone elses' real-world problem.
Many trailers & some motorhomes come spec'd with 12v car-sized batteries & thus car-sized battery boxes or compartments. So when a person is changing from a car style battery to 6v types it can & does often make a difference 1 battery vs another. I showed above that dimensions are different from 1 to another manufacturer.... it's your right to poo-poo that in your own mind if that's your prerogative, but it doesn't change the fact it is what it is (as seen in writing by the manufacturers).
I've personally owned 2 tag-trailers where the box 'head space' I was allotted was down to a 'hair' or 2 in free space, so going with 1 vs another kind of battery did matter.
These forums are supposed to be about passing info to help each other. Just because what I posted doesn't help you doesn't mean it wont help others. Try to keep an open mind & be a happy camper.
