What has Trojan done ?
Just printed the T-145 data sheet from the company website to verify my Magnum charge params and noticed a little change.. From my .pdf published in 2015: Bulk: 13.8 Float: 13.2 Eq: 15.5 And ...

The remainder of the variances are not typos. 15.5 would equalize a sulfated 6 cells of GC220 - in about a week. 16.2 is a tad too hot for my taste. Are they claiming reaching 16.0 would not bring sulfates off the plates?
14.8 @ 20c
13.6 float @ 21c
16.0 then terminate equalization
The Old-Timey electrolyte density of Trojan's GC220 batteries was 1.275 @ 25c
Has this changed?
Seems not, see Table 7 way down. (1.277 @80F) Note they also have a "finish charge" voltage besides their Abs and E charges.

Beats me. My Interstate 6s in 2011 were 1.300 new at 35F and I can still get them there if I work at it (maybe by eating what's left of their plates! :) )
A local Interstate dealer back then (2011) said he had "heard" that Interstate had raised its SG to 1.300. I assume this was for the "temperate" zone, where before 1.300 was only for up North.
