Why should I switch to golf cart 6v batteries
Can anyone explain in plain easy to understand language what practical benefits you derive from replacing 12v coach batteries to 6v golf cart batteries? I currently have 2 group 24 (95AH) batteries ...

Hi Huntin,
I did find the source for the thickeness of the plates:
"Automotive batteries typically have plates about .040" (4/100") thick, while forklift batteries may have plates more than 1/4" (.265" for example in larger Rolls-Surrette) thick - almost 7 times as thick as auto batteries. The typical golf cart will have plates that are around .07 to .11" thick. The Concorde AGM's are .115", The Rolls-Surrette L-16 type (CH460) is .150", and the US Battery and Trojan L-16 types are .090". The Crown L-16HC size has .22" thick plates. While plate thickness is not the only factor in how many deep cycles a battery can take before it dies, it is the most important one."
