T105 vs. T105RE

I see Trojan has two different T105s. A 105 and a 105 RE. Is there any difference between these two Batteries. I spoke with a salesman a Continental Battery and he said there's not much but they have to special order the 105 RE , 4-6 week delivery. Tell me what you know. Thanks.
  • With 2 of them the extra 30ah would be nice to have.

    It's 15A/h more... but yes, definitely nice to have.

    The RE indicates that it is part of Trojan's "Renewable Energy" line. They have a 5 year warranty instead of the 18month warranty of the regular T-105...and they have "L" terminals instead of the low-profile screw posts.

    If you're looking for a Trojan 6V GC2 battery, have you considered the T-125 which the same size but has a capacity of 240A/h (@20Hr rate) instead of 225 ???

    No, I had not noticed the T125s. With 2 of them the extra 30ah would be nice to have. I'll check into them. Thanks

    I suspect the terminals are the main difference. Longer warranty is nice but may not apply if you install them in an RV instead of an off grid home.
    I would just get the regular version.

    I think you are correct. Plus I don't want to wait 4-6 weeks.
