That's probably pretty close to cost.
I haven't been real happy with Exides in my road EVs, though some folks I
know like them in ETs. I've been told that Exide build the golf car
batteries on the same line as the SLI (non-deep-cycle) batteries, and use
some components from the SLI batteries in the golf car batteries. I
don't know if that's true, though.
I use US Battery (AKA Interstate Workaholic). Some people think Trojans
last longer, but they (the batteries, not the people <g>) usually cost
more, at least in my area.
I can generally get 220 ah 6v US Battery for around $45 each. Price
depends on the price of lead that week.
