T-125 (6v) vs T-1275 (12v)
Mex has been explaining the diffs between 12v and 6v deep cycle batts in recent threads, but there are still questions. With two of the 6s (66 lbs) that is 132 lbs for 240AH (20hr- 12a), while tw...

what about aH per $$$.
myself I would be interested in getting the most AHs that fit the space, assuming cost is not outlandish.

The point is that it seems not all AHs are created equal for cost comparisons. Peukert plus plate/electrolyte ratios, whatever.
so it seems you first need to know if you are a low amp guy or an high amp guy so you can figure what AH performance you can get from each type of battery (not sure about that---maybe we will learn more here) THEN you can do a cost comparison?

I wonder if the battery heights make a fair comparison. How does it work out for T-105s and L16s on the 6v side? I don't know if there is a short version deep cycle 12.

Mex says the T-1275 is a scrubber battery but they are used in golf cars (four make 48v) as an alternative to using six 8v ones.
Local forklift guy swears T-105s work better in his forklifts because they do not shatter inside like some others do when getting pounded around.
