Re: Trojan ranger 160
I've installed them. It's been a while back though and I don't recall the cost. They weren't too terribly bad though. Discharge time was 140-150 minutes on a 6 month old set. A new set of T-875s is around 100-120 at the most.

Re: Trojan ranger 160
T875 is a 8 volt battery I'm talking how the pack compares to a 6 volt (48volt pack )
I gather the 6 volt pack out performs the 8 volt pack all day long. |

Re: Trojan ranger 160
T-875 are $125 where I'm located. Just wondering how good the run time really is. I want the most run time possible. Considering I have a 500amp controller. And does anyone have the T-890 if so do you like them over the t-875

Re: Trojan ranger 160
Put 8 T-145 (or equivalent) six volt batteries in there if you want the longest run time. If you want to stay with 6-8's I don't think you can beat the Ranger with anything that will fit in there.

Re: Trojan ranger 160
The min@56 amp hr. rating was devised to closely match the power draw of a 48v golf cart in average use at 80 degrees.
T875 capacity in Minutes @ 56 117 T890 capacity in Minutes @ 56 132 R160 capacity in Minutes @ 56 160 While your mileage may vary, there's the measuring stick. |

Re: Trojan ranger 160
Yeah I read the specs on Trojans website. Just wondering if they really are performing like they say they do.

Re: Trojan ranger 160
If you can shoe -horn 8 -6 volt try Crowns 260 amp/hr you won't regret it
Excellent range and more important greater life span Ps .. Great for hunting |
