Trojan isnโt a distributor or retailer, wizard. The T1275 is a true deep cycle 12 volt battery.

Mostly because 2 large six volt batteries in series gives you more amp-hours than the 12 V batteries do. For example Our 6V Interstates have a rating of 220 AH (amp/hour) each where a 12V might give 80-90 AH each for a total of only 160-180 AH (example). Plus the deep cycle battery handles deep discharge and recharge better.
Despite what the distributors and retail establishments tell you, marine/dual purpose 12V batteries are NOT true deep cycle batteries. The only commonly available TRUE deep cycle batteries are 6V golf cart batteries.
(12V deep cycle batteries DO EXIST, but they are hard to locate (typically special order) and very expensive)

I just replaced the house batteries in our Sea Breeze after getting 8 years out of them. It had to 6v in it. Just curious, why do some people run two 6 volts instead of parallel 12v?
