Trojan Batteries And Chargers
Hi James I have four T-145's in my house compartment up front & they work
good for me. I have had them in for two years. Just make sure you have the room
for the higher batteries in the compartment. They are in a 89 SP 36'. I had
T-105's in my 79 FC that worked good also.

Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Trojan Batteries And Chargers



I just finished looking at the Trojan Web Site. There are three models
that I want to talk about -- T-105, T-125, T-145.



These are all identical in dimensions with the only exception being that
the T-145 is slightly less than an inch taller.



Here are the 20hr rates -- T-105 = 225AH, T-125 = 240AH, T-145 = 260AH.



The only other difference is their weight -- T-105 = 60lbs, T-125 =
66lbs, T-145 = 72lbs.



Seems like the heavier models have larger plates and should have
greater durability, I suppose, more Amp Hours for sure. So I am
wondering why everyone uses the T-105's? Is there a problem with using
the higher reated models?



If any one has any input on a new charge/converter to replace the
original I would appreciate it. the original charger/converter works
fine but I have been told that it will boil the batteries. In fact, the
previous owner of my bus has a timer in line with the charger to prevent
it from running full time when the bus is "pluged in." This actually
works fine but I'm assuming that it is a one stage charger and was
wondering if it would make sense to replace it with a modern 3 stage
job.



Also it appears that the charger and the converter are two seperate
units that were originally mounted next to each other in a road side
bay. I have no problems with the converter at all. Are all newer units
combo charger/converters? Would it make sense to only up grade the
charger? Is that even possible? Whats the best type of charger to use?



Thanks in advance.
