The Trojan T-605 6V flooded battery is a deep-cycle lead-acid battery designed for sustained energy delivery in off-grid and mobility applications. It features a 6V nominal voltage and 210Ah capacity at 20-hour discharge rates, optimized for golf carts, forklifts, and solar storage systems. Built with durable flooded lead-acid technology, it offers ~600+ cycles at 50% depth of discharge (DoD) in 25°C conditions. Maintenance includes monthly water top-ups and equalization charging at 7.4–7.5V to prevent stratification.
Advanced EV vs ICON Golf Cart Comparison
What defines the T-605’s electrical characteristics?
The T-605 delivers 6V nominal voltage with 210Ah capacity, producing 1.26kWh per cell. Its 20-hour discharge rate (10.5A current) suits deep cycling, while 505A 5-second cranking amps support high-current demands in electric vehicles.

Deep Dive: The T-605 uses thick lead plates (5.2–5.4mm) with antimony-alloy grids for structural stability during 600+ cycles. Voltage parameters include 6.35V rest state (100% charge) and 5.25V cutoff under load. Pro Tip: Avoid discharging below 5.1V to prevent irreversible sulfation. For example, a solar system using six T-605s in series creates a 36V bank storing 12.6kWh—enough for 3 days of off-grid cabin power. Transitional note: Beyond voltage specs, proper maintenance dictates longevity.

How does cycle life compare to lithium alternatives?
While the T-605 achieves 600 cycles at 50% DoD, LiFePO4 batteries exceed 2,000 cycles—but at 4× the cost. Flooded cells remain preferred where upfront costs dominate.
What maintenance ensures optimal performance?
Monthly electrolyte checks and terminal cleaning prevent capacity loss. Equalize monthly at 7.4–7.5V per cell to reverse stratification.

FAQs
No—flooded cells require upright orientation to prevent electrolyte leakage from vent caps.
What charger voltage is required?
Use a 6V smart charger with 7.35–7.45V absorption and 6.75V float settings. Undercharging accelerates plate sulfation.
