Re: (ET) Tired of lead acid batteries
Hmmmm....I bought the batteries for my E-20 at Sam's club ($55 each - made
by Trojan, I believe) back in 1999 and they are still going strong, albeit
maybe not like brand new. I can mow 2 to 2.5 hours before they are about
shot, and that is with frequent stops, starts, and reverse - not to mention
hills. Used the stock charger (till my brother-in-law fried it) and didn't
do anything special maintenance-wise except checked them once or twice a
season to make sure they weren't running dry. I don't know what to say....

Subject: (ET) Tired of lead acid batteries
I have been buying the cheapo Sams Club golf cart batteries. They just
don't last. 2 yrs, and I've had to replace a few. Also, lead acid just
seems so old fashioned.
So no major problems, but looking for an alternative.
It looks like the bb600's might be of interest. But not for $1000.
Thanks for the input all.
