So, turns out there is a golf cart dealership near my home so i stopped and talked to them. Sadly they seemed to know less about batteries than i do, but said they could order any battery i want. They found me a true deep cycle battery for 120.00. I ended up with flooded batteries. Cost was a big factor but also it seems that the other types arent really any better. I just need to be diligent about checking the water.
I couldnt fit 2 grp 27's and would get more power out of 2 24s than i would out of a single 27, so i mounted 2 24's and wired them up. So far so good. They just barely fit and i had to modify the box covers a bit to make room for the wires but overall I'm satisfied with how it turned out.
Todays question is about the charging of the new batteries. What voltage should i expect to see at the battery when the shore line is plugged in? I dont want to boil them dry.
Thanks for the help!
