I am going to install 4 T-105s in the fiver. 12VDC and 450ah. The best price I could find was a local battery shop at $130.00 + tax no core each. The battery box will be from another shop out of state at $85.00 + shipping. Has anybody seen these batteries for less? Do you feel that it is a good deal?
Just trying to save some $$$ on these to put gas in the tank. Ha, ha.
Thanks,
Chris

I thought T-105 were 6volt?? Oh well. Have you tried golf or golf cart shops?? Ask the guys in the golf cart area of the golf coarse where they get their batteries from.

You guys are doing better than me. I couldn't find them for under $165 in my area so I just went with good 12v's instead.

You can save a few bucks by using stock group 24 boxes instead of the 85 dollar one. I've only got two T-105s but they're in individual group 24 boxes and work just fine as long as they don't need to be vented boxes.

I bought this storage box from Lowes. Heavy duty and hold 4 6v's perfectly. Only $20. Price out the Interstate 2200's. Same specs as the Trojans. Battery prices have sky rocketed this year so dont pay much attention to what someone paid several months ago.

Check out Sams Club they are not T-105s but the specs are very close to T-105s, bought mine several years ago and paid around $65.00 each.
