Thanks for the insight.I have held them in my hands, they are a good price but no where near the weight as a Trojan or Deka [less lead] After the issues I have had with flooded batteries I would recommend AGM style if you can afford them, especially inside the van, no gassing and if mounted under the van alot less hassle to maintain, basically null. Flooded batteries need close regular inspection, and leak.
Well, there heavier than I thought, my Deka's weigh 77lbs but I have the GC45'sThanks for the insight.
Costco listed these as 63lbs.
It might be worth throwing these on the scale at Costco, as they may have received a non valid weight to post on the placard.I looked at the Costco 6v Golf cart batteries a couple of days ago and they sure looked like one of the Deka batteries: same lid covers, same dimensions, similar weight, etc.
If it says 'Marine' anywhere on the battery it is probably a starting/deep cycle hybrid (if there really is such a thing.) It is in all likelihood not a true deep-cycle battery.Their Marine/RV deep cycle batteries seem to be heavier than their car batteries. They still had a CCA spec on them so am guessing not AGM. Would be curious to see if anyone else know what they really are?
