Trojan Motive DC-8V 160Ah 8VDC Group GC8 Signature Deep-Cycle Flooded Battery
Manufacturer Part#: DC-8V
The Signature Line of deep-cycle flooded batteries is the flagship of Trojan’s product portfolio. Engineered to provide rugged durability and outstanding performance, Trojan’s Signature Line is perfectly suited for use in a variety of applications where lowest life-cycle cost is the key consideration. An all-around power house, the Signature Line features Trojan’s historically-proven engineering with T2 Technology™, an advanced battery technology for maximum sustained performance, longer life and increased total energy.
- Trojan’s Grid Technology is a lead antimony alloy grid mixture formulated for use with Trojan’s Alpha Plus® Paste with T2 Technology. The overall grid configuration is optimized to enhance current flow through the grid network providing exceptional battery performance, reducing downtime and lowering overall maintenance costs.
- Trojan’s Maxguard T2 separator features a multi-rib geometry which keeps acid channels open longer enhancing electrochemical processing while reducing the risk of stratification. Trojan’s Maxguard T2 advanced separator sustains performance providing exceptionally longer battery life and significantly lowering your operating costs.
- Alpha Plus® Paste with T2 Technology is a proprietary, high-density paste formulation precisely engineered to deliver outstanding battery performance. Together Alpha Plus Paste with T2 Technology increases both sustained capacity and total overall ampere-hours resulting in more operating power for your application. It’s a key reason why Trojan batteries consistently outperform the competition.
Trojan Motive DC-8V is compatible with the HydroLink™ Battery Watering System
Trojan knows the importance of battery maintenance and its impact on the life of your deep-cycle battery. Battery maintenance, particularly watering your battery, can be time-consuming, messy and, in some instances, unsafe. Trojan’s HydroLink single-point battery watering system offers key features and benefits not available today:
-
Independent Water Level Indicator – HydroLink comes with an independent, non-mechanical water level indicator that is simple to read: white means the battery needs water and black means the battery has enough water.
-
Safety – HydroLink comes with both internal and external flame arrestors, making it the safest watering system in the industry.
-
Cost Effective – HydroLink saves valuable time and money by filling a complete set of batteries in less than 30 seconds. With proper watering, HydroLink can maximize battery life.
-
Guaranteed – HydroLink is tested and guaranteed to work with your Trojan batteries in the most popular configurations*, and it comes with a full 4-year warranty.

Special notes:
- Please note that Batteries can take 3 weeks or more to deliver. Because they ship via company truck deliver or LTL, they take longer than ground shipping to set up and deliver.
- For LTL battery shipments, please be sure to inspect the item before signing the delivery receipt provided by the freight company. Damage must be noted at the time of delivery to avoid claim denial. Any damage claim that is submitted after the delivery receipt has already been signed will be denied.
- For all battery orders, a valid phone number must be provided. The carrier will contact you via phone to set up an appointment for delivery.
