TROJAN BATTERY LAUNCHES DEEP-CYCLE GELtm LINE FOR MAINTENANCE FREE CUSTOMER CONVENIENCE

Trojan Battery Company, the world’s leading manufacturer of deep cycle batteries, recently announced the availability of its Deep-Cycle Gel™ line of sealed lead acid batteries. Trojan’s introduction of Deep-Cycle Gel will expand its market share in the following markets: floor machine, aerial work platform (AWP), and golf and utility vehicles.
Trojan’s Deep-Cycle Gel batteries are completely maintenance free and require no watering while providing customers long-lasting runtime and battery life in the most demanding of applications. Utilizing a proprietary Gel formulation, Trojan’s Deep-Cycle Gel product line provides longer cycle life than other Gel or AGM technologies making it best in its class.

With superior engineering, the Deep-Cycle Gel line offers exceptional durability and is certified non-spillable (UN2800) for air, sea or ground transportation, thus making it an optimal solution for use in health & safety-sensitive (HSE) environments such as schools, hospitals, airports and office buildings.

“We are very excited about this product line for it will allow us to offer our customers additional quality maintenance free products that complement our flooded deep cycle batteries in our core industrial and recreational markets,” said David Godber, Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Trojan Battery. “With a broader deep cycle product line, we can leverage our extensive application expertise with OEMs to help them select the right battery for their unique requirements.”

The Deep-Cycle Gel batteries are also available through Trojan’s Master Distributor Network in the following sizes: 24-Gel, 27-Gel, 31-Gel, and 6V-Gel (GC2). The Deep-Cycle 24-Gel and 27-Gel products replace Trojan’s SuperGel SG-70 and SG-90 products.

If they are sealed, they can be ground shipped....no mention of the popular 8 volt?

Re: New trojan gel batts
 

Hummm, We're authorized Trojan dealers and haven't heard about it. Is the cost still over $200.00 a battery for 6 volt? There is another company offering AGM's and they are nearly $250.00 / each...

They have them on the new web site, both GEL and AGM replacement for T-105 type.
No 8volts yet. But as they have lower AH, I would use 8 of them on a 48v system for longer range.
Check out specs: (I like a lot more the AGM's)

AGM: http://www.trojanbattery.com/Products/6V-AGM6V.aspx

But as said by Mike, we have the Discover batts already with much more options to choose and of course there is 8v and 12v on them.
