[RE-wrenches] Surrette AGM's

[Peter Parrish]

I am an infrequent (3/year) designer/installer of grid-tied battery back up
systems. I really like the SunXtender battery line. We can get them for a
good price (contact me off line) here in Los Angeles.

With that, I cannot vouch for cycling them 1,200 times to 80% DoD. That
seems a bit severe. I have a graph of #/discharges vs. DoD for thee
batteries. I will try to dig it up and make it available.

Getting a few "survival mode" system requests...and of course they want "no
maintenance" battery bank.....I have to smile when I see them flop around on
the floor when I show them the GNB Absolyte pricing......Surrette's ain't
that much cheaper (about $2000 in this case).... any one out there spec'd
the S-460-AGM that can give me some feedback?...looking for GNB- like
performance (1200 cycles @ 80%dod tested) for just a bit less money (or am I
just imagining those are oinking noises coming from above?)
