We are wondering if anybody knows when the Trojan L-16RE-B batteries went from full SG readings of 1.265 (after an 18 month "plate forming" period) to 1.280 that they now state on the data sheet. We have been having customers use 1.250 as a full reading which would gradually increase over time to 1.265 and that might take/might not be seen for 18 months. Now we see that a "full reading" should be 1.280 and maybe still a "plate forming" period or maybe not? Does anyone know the date code that we can use with customers to see what they should be looking for (should have been somewhere between 2010 and 2012)? I have this question out to Trojan as well, but haven't received confirmation and wanted to know what data you all were seeing as well.
