Default New Trojan Batteries hitting the market

Trojan is offering two brand new golf-cart 8v batteries to the golf-cart community. The "Traveler" has a 40% longer battery life, while the "Ranger" claims 35% more distance between charges.

Check it out here, would love to know your thoughts:

Kind of interesting how they "named" these models instead of designating a number (ie: T-875)

You should always go with the 890 over the 875, I wonder why they didn't compare it to the bigger T890? Maybe it would not have made such a dramatic chart?

Anyway Bigger IS Better

I just emailed Trojan and asked about any new 12 volt batteries in the works.
When they reply, I'll post the response.

I know....12 volt batteries suck....whatever, wanna race?

On paper eight T-145 6v's are still gonna be better - although all that extra weight is like carrying around another person all the time.

I guess if you have to stick with a 8v setup then these options look like the top of the food chain. Just happy to see some new tech on these leads.
