Another thing...Each battery has a birth date code stamped on the top. When you go to replace your battery set, make sure each of the batteries are not more than 4-5 months old. Trojan batteries have a 2-character date code: "A7" would be Jan 2017 birthdate - "B6" would be Feb 2016 birthdate. "K7" is coming off the factory line today (November 2017). This also holds true for your automobile batteries. You want fresh batteries like you want fresh bread...only bread is cheap.

Heck, if Im shelling out $750 for a new battery set, I don't want them to be more than a month old.
