Physically impractical to try and manufacture cyclable group 31 batteries with more than 110 ampere hours capacity. Plates jammed to the max in each cell.
90 would be better for cyclable usage. We are talking about a heavy battery.
The acid to active plate area ratio is all wrong for higher ampere hours.
Why do you think truly cyclable batteries contain all that electrolyte? It isn't because it offers a better chance of not running the acid level to expose the plates.
When my contractor was selling batteries, the same jar but lighter weight battery had half as many warranties. BTW we are talking about Trojan, and Ramcar. You couldn't give a T-125 away to golf courses even though they cost more. Yes, this was also for Trojans. Too many warranties. Other GC220's suffered the same fate.
Sorry about the bad news. I can't contribute smileys all the time :(
