[RE-wrenches] absolyte GP battery question/ sideways mounting.

[Todd Cory]

Hey Jay,

This is this is only anecdotal but I have two UPS's with sealed batteries. 
One sits where the battery is up right. The other one sits on its side and 
the battery is horizontal. The longevity of the battery in the one oriented 
upright is about double the other one.
