Hi Holt,

The S-460-AGM is too new for any meaningful feedback to be generated. I guess we will know in 5 years or so. This is always a problem with new battery designs.

It is interesting though that Rolls/Surrette does not list that battery in their "Renewable Energy Products" line. Next time I get a chance, I'll talk to them about that. They don't publish any cycle life info, so I wonder if they have limited cycle life. That's fine for back-up systems, but not for off-grid.

The GNB's are expensive, but very heavy duty. We just recently had a price reduction from them so have your salesperson give you a quote. For Pricing, contact Megan West at mwest at aeesolar.com<mailto:mwest at aeesolar.com>, or at ext 4841

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?)
