The T-605 is a 6 volt flooded lead acid battery from Trojan's Signature Line. Its case measures 10.30 by 7.11 by 11.07 inches (262 by 181 by 281 mm) and the battery weighs 58 lbs (26 kg). Capacity is 210 Ah at the 20-hour rate, with 383 minutes at 25 amps and 1.39 kWh of energy. Watering goes through a single-point HydroLink system.
Our take
The single-point HydroLink watering system is the practical feature on a flooded battery, since the maker says it makes maintenance easier and safer. With 210 Ah at the 20-hour rate and a weight of 58 lbs, plan the mounting space and the lift before you bring it aboard.
From our buying guide
A starting battery delivers a short burst of strong power, a deep-cycle battery a low, steady level for longer, and a dual-purpose battery a balance of the two. Buy for the job it will do.
Check before you buy:
- You've measured the tray against the maker's real dimensions, since a BCI group gives maximum sizes and some batteries sold as a drop-in run longer.
- You're comparing the same rating. Cold cranking amps are tested at 0°F and cranking amps at 32°F, so the second number is higher.
- If it's lithium, the maker says whether it may start an engine, and NMMA advises contacting your boat's manufacturer or a certified technician before replacing lead-acid.
