   Agree, that is about right for price.  Not real familiar with Diehard batteries, at the golf course where I worked the electric carts (since the 1980's) have always had Trojan's.  Have worked on some electric carts that members have, and when it comes to changeout, we go with Trojans.  

I have two batteries in our 177.  The oldest is 12 yrs. old, Interstate 12v, group size 24 deep cycle.  The newer one is a Trojan T-1275, a heavy weight at 85 lbs. but also gives 165 AH of service.  We not not utilize either solar of generator.  When the T-1275 was purchased 8/2020, the price was $ 200 and that was with a trade in.

	If they say GC2 and weigh in about 60lbs each, that's them. I believe all GC2 batteries are deep cycle.

	Calling all battery experts. I am adding some solar upgade, and I wanted to add another battery so I could have 2. I decided to go with 2 six volt golf cart batteries. I bought 2 Diehard 225 Ah golf car batteries. The only other things marked on them are GC2. They cost me 350 bucks for 2. Does this sound about right?? They are not maintainance free.
