Batteres for Cart
 

What's the LATEST info? :shrug:

My usual repair man is recommending DEKA (or decca) batteries.

I've heard Trojan's are very good .... BATTERIES, but also expensive.

The quote I got was for $639 installed.

Just lookin' for some opinions......thanks.....:bowdown:

Idea
 

I also am in need to replace a set of golf cart batteries. Maybe we should get 5 to 10 folks who all need to have this done and buy as a group. Might get a better price if we needed to buy 40 or 50 batteries and got the same person to install them all. I am sure the service person would get a better price buying a pallet then just enough for a single cart. I need 6, 8 volt batteries and would prefer trojons, but would consider others for the right price.

Are we the only two people on TOTV that need batteries in the next 90 days? Hard to believe.

Yeah, I know what you mean.
I was rather surprised at the lack of responses.
I did a search on 'batteries' but there was more chatter about the credibility of the service people than the batteries themselves. That's why I started a new thread, and to get what might be new info.
I'll keep watching a couple of days but at THE RISK of sounding sexist,
I think there are alot more women on this site reading & commenting on threads than men who are the likely researchers of this type of problem.
(that ought get me in trouble)

I'll take Interstate or US first
 

They are heavier and have larger cells. No one I know uses Trojan or Spano.

I'll be needing batteries also but have not heard good things about Trojan. Back a few years ago I'm told they started to thinner product in their cells without telling the distributers and raised prices.Believe they lost the contract with Club Car.
Has anyone done bussiness with the Battery Boys??

I still prefer Trojans and have always found Ken Spano to have the best price. About 6 months ago the price for 6 8 volt trojans was $618. Where is cart fixer these days? gn

There is no question Trojan has some competition, but is still a quality battery IMO. In fact I just bought 16 6-volt T105 batteries for my two carts. I bought them from Ken Spano for a good price. I understand the varying opinions on batteries, but.....

I am interested in why you say no one you know uses Spano. I have never had an issue with Ken and am curiious.

We just yesterday had Battery Boyz at our home. It was our first time dealing with them and it won't be our last. My husband was VERY pleased with their service and knowledge and of course their cost of new Trojan batteries. Highly recommended.

Would you mind sharing the model of battery and the cost?

Thanks

There was a thread here a while ago with negative comments about Ken Spano. Someone even erroneously announced he no longer installed batteries. Mr. Spano responded but maybe the damage was done.

I don't know, aj, if this had any bearing on gego3650"s remarks

It is unfortunate these things occur. A reputation is an easy thing to destroy.

I have never used Ken Spano nor do I know him but the only negative I have ever heard was in the aforementioned thread. On the other hand, I have heard and read many positive comments about him.
