You’re absolutely right — I stand corrected. Although it’s a little higher,
around 2.1V, going a fully-charged 12-volt battery at rest a voltage of 12.6V.

your post aligns with my understanding with a slight correction. The individual
cells are ~2 volts in series (6 X 2 volts = 12 volts) . On some of the older
surette batteries you could actually change out individual cells. I am still

Peter — please remember that six-volt and twelve-volt batteries are made from
1.5-volt cells; the only difference is the number of cells wired in series to
make up the battery. Two six-volt batteries wired in series are functionally
equivalent to a twelve-volt battery.
I can understand if that

6v would be fine in series but from what I can tell from the manufacturer's
written and verbal guidance, the charger is limited to a certain maximum

6v would be fine in series but from what I can tell from the manufacturer's
written and verbal guidance, the charger is limited to a certain maximum
battery size (group 31)... I assume Amp-hr limit. A group 31 is about 105

Two 6V GC2 golf cart in series would be about 230 amp-hour.

Golf cart 6V
Golf cart 6V batteries should still be okay, as long as they’re connected in
series pairs to get the voltage up to 12V.

The 2 group 27 in parallel is covered in the manual but only as an example for
the 2-bank charger. All the 3-bank charger examples given are 24V applications.
I don’t think this is an issue.
6-volt golf cart batteries are not an option since
Surette's are very good quality deep cycle batteries...check to make

Yes it is possible to start the GM line with a handle. It is a special
design which drives a set of gears on the front of the engine, not the
flywheel directly. You need to have the decompression levers held in order

Surette (Rolls in the USA) are very good batteries (perhaps the best wet
batteries out there) with longer than average life (and higher than average
prices to match) and you shouldn't be in a hurry to replace them unless you
are sure they have been damaged.
