Why the RB-125 Outperforms the Competition
Maximized Runtime: With 240 Amp Hours, the RB-125 offers higher energy density than standard GC2 batteries, allowing for longer work cycles and fewer recharge interruptions.
Premium Deep-Cycle Engineering: Built with high-density active material and reinforced plate grids to provide excellent recovery from deep discharge states.
Drop-In Trojan Alternative: Expertly sized to match the footprint of the Trojan T-125, ensuring a seamless fit in your existing battery trays and cable configurations.
Exceptional Value: Provides the same professional-grade performance and longevity as premium national brands at a more competitive price point for fleet and commercial owners.
Industrial Grade Durability: The rugged polypropylene case is designed to withstand high-vibration environments, protecting the internal lead plates from physical stress.
Expert Recommendation: Because the RB-125 is a high-capacity wet cell, it is highly recommended to pair it with a single-point watering system for easy maintenance of its superior 240Ah lifespan.
Republic Battery RB-125: Applications & OEM Replacement Guide
The Republic Battery RB-125 is designed as a high-capacity, "extended range" version of the standard GC2 battery. While it shares the same physical footprint as standard 6V golf cart batteries, its internal plate density and 240Ah rating make it a premium choice for high-demand systems.
Primary Applications
Golf & Utility Vehicles: The ideal power source for Club Car, EZGO, and Yamaha fleets, especially those operating on hilly terrain or performing heavy towing tasks where standard 210Ah or 225Ah batteries struggle.
Industrial Floor Care: Direct fit for commercial floor scrubbers and sweepers from brands like Tennant, Nilfisk, Clarke, and Viper. The RB-125 provides the long discharge rates required for cleaning large warehouse facilities.
Aerial Work Platforms: Powers scissor lifts and boom lifts from JLG, Genie, and Skyjack, ensuring workers can stay elevated and operational through a full 8-hour shift.
Renewable Energy Storage: A popular choice for residential solar storage and off-grid cabins. Its deep-cycle flooded design is highly resilient to the daily charge/discharge cycles of solar and wind systems.
Marine & RV Power: Perfect for "house" battery banks in motorhomes and large boats, providing massive reserve power for lights, refrigeration, and electronics without needing constant generator support.
