Size, terminals and hold-down of the Trojan DC-8V
The Trojan DC-8V is made in the 259 × 179 × 283 mm format and weighs 28 kg. It uses 2 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
The Trojan DC-8V: ciclo profundo - T2 Technology range and conventional lead-acid technology
Within the Trojan catalogue, the ciclo profundo - T2 Technology series groups the references designed for this use. The DC-8V is the 160 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.
What Trojan does differently
Founded in 1925 in California, Trojan invented the golf cart battery and remains the standard in deep-discharge applications that demand thousands of cycles. We guarantee that every Trojan arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.
Manufacturer's warranty
The Trojan DC-8V comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. If it fails through a defect within the warranty period, we replace it at no cost to you.
Care and maintenance
On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. Recharge the set fully after each round and avoid routine discharges below 20%.
