Re: Where to buy batteries?

Most likely close enough for them to install which ever way you decide to go. LEN Copy that Len, I'll head south. That's actually our old Costco. Moved up to Westminster to a short term apartment about 3 months before we bought our RV.573Views0likes0CommentsRe: Where to buy batteries?

I don't have a Sam's membership unfortunately, but might be able to find a friend that does. http://www.samsclub.com/sams/golf-cart-batteries/3990117.cp I run four of those. If you go Trojans they do state 14.8 volt charging 4 of which? There are 8 different batteries on that page.328Views0likes0CommentsRe: Where to buy batteries?

Then I had to find new battery boxes because the 6 volt batteries are tall. Also really heavy compared to the 12 volt deep cycle batteries I've used. I measured the battery box and it'll fit two 6 volts. Good point on the weight though, I should be concerned about the 1993 welds holding! I'll do some research on the best 12v we can use. We will be doing a lot of dry camping, which is why I wanted to go with two 6 volts.328Views0likes0CommentsRe: Where to buy batteries?
