Welcome to BGW!
Is that a question or a statement?
Either way, the suggested percent reduction might be a little optimistic.
A 36V battery pack consisting of 6 Trojan T-105 6V batteries has a run time of 115 minutes @ 75A (100% benchmark)
A 36V battery pack consisting of 3 Trojan T-1260 12V batteries has a run time of 60 minutes @ 75A (47.8% reduction)
A 36V battery pack consisting of 3 Trojan T-1275 12V batteries has a run time of 70 minutes @ 75A (39.1% reduction)
Of course, no one in their right mind is likely to discharge the batteries in their cart down as far as the batteries are discharged during capacity testing, but the percentages should remain fairly constant.
