Even the GC2s require at least a SMALL gorilla!

Dave,

The simple answer is - Yes.
Golf cart batteries are usually 6 or 8 volt. So, if you use the 3 hole kind you need two to make a 12VDC bank.
The AGM referenced was only 102AH.
The singular advantage of using a pair of GC2 instead of a single 8D is that you don't need to hire a gorilla to move the two pieces.

Matt
