The History and Innovation of Trojan Golf Cart Batteries

The story of Trojan Battery Company is inextricably linked to the evolution of the modern golf cart. Founded in 1925 by George Godber and Carl Speer, Trojan initially focused on automotive batteries before pivoting to a discovery that would change the industry. In 1952, Trojan pioneered the first deep-cycle battery specifically designed for the burgeoning golf cart market. This innovation essentially created the segment, allowing golfers to traverse the course without the noise and maintenance of gas engines. Over a century of American manufacturing expertise has solidified Trojan's reputation as the world's leading manufacturer of deep-cycle flooded lead-acid batteries.

Engineering the Standard for the Fairway

Trojan batteries are engineered to meet the unique demands of golf and utility vehicles, which require deep, repetitive discharges rather than the quick bursts of power found in automotive starting batteries. The Signature Line, recognizable by its iconic maroon polypropylene case, is built to withstand the high-vibration stress and impact of daily use on uneven terrain.

At the heart of their performance is proprietary T2 Technology. This system utilizes Alpha Plus Paste, a high-density active material, coupled with a reinforced metal grid design. This combination optimizes porosity and structural integrity, resulting in more operating power and a significantly longer total life cycle.

Whether you are maintaining a professional fleet or a personal cart, Trojan's heritage of quality ensures your vehicle has the energy to go the distance.
