The UB4D is a poor battery for the application. It does not have a very good life. The C&D batteries are designed for long life (10 years) in standby applications. That system will cycle maybe 100 times in 10 years. Good application for VRLA sealed lead-acid batteries.
OK thanks. Very interesting. They are lucky to have someone like you that's is so knowlegable!

I guess technology for batteries like everything else keeps improving.
