Default Replacing Trojan T-1275 12v with Marine Deep Cycle

I have 4 12 volt Trojan T-1275 deep cell batteries in my 2008 Yamaha Electric Drive. Looking for a cost-effective alternative to replacing them with new 1275s. Someone suggested getting 12 volt deep cell marine batteries (specific recommendations include EverStart Maxx Marine Battery, Group Size 29DC or 27F-DLG Duralast Golds). In researching this issue online, it appears that these are hybrid deep cell batteries and might not be right for a golf cart (or wear out quick). Thoughts on this issue (apologies if this has been discussed before, was having trouble searching for threads).

VERY BAD IDEA! They won't perform and they won't last. You need batteries designed to put out the high currents used in a golf cart. Maine deep cycle batteries are not designed for that.

Thanks, that is what I was seeing online. So any suggestions on which brand of 12 volt to purchase? I know of Trojan and US Batteries. Any others?

Those are the two best options. Spend a little more now for them and have the piece of mind knowing they'll perform great for you and last longer (w/ proper maintenance) than cheaper alternatives.

With batteries you get what you pay for.
