Battery brands
Are Trijans worth $20 per battery over the US XC's?
I will need new batteries by next golf season and have priced the Trojan and US brands. Trijans are $160 per and US's are $140 per. Will the US XC's be just as good? |

Re: Battery brands
Have you looked at Crown. That is what Club Car puts in their carts now as OEM. They get good reviews.

Re: Battery brands
I just bit the bullet and ordered 4 Trojan T1275s for my precdent. I paid $860 for all four. My cart has Club Car OEM (2007) batteries and they are stamped Trojan. They lasted over 4 yesrs My theory is: If your cart only has 4 batts, spend the extra $$$ and buy the best you can. My mechanic just called, the batts are in.
Oh, I bought mine from my local auto mehcanic. They don't do carts, but he still got 'em for me. I'm all about supporting the local guys. |

Re: Battery brands
I have used the 12v US brand with great success through two golf carts. I have had Trojan's before and would take either of them as they have both served me well. I take good care of them and do proper maintenance through PM's and Charging. Based on all that, I would go with the best deal.
