Does DEKA make a good UPS battery?
I took a trip yesterday down near San Diego, it was twofold. One was to replace my free Trojan T-1275 that was a golf cart reject already when I got it with a pig of a 105# UPS 145ah AGM battery from ...

What was the OCV when you got the battery?
I think an AGM battery that size for that price, is a steal.
You will certainly notice different numbers on you Megawatt's ammeter.
My Northstar AGM is an AMP whore, it just gobbles up everything my charging sources can muster until the mid to upper 80% state of charge range. That Lifeline GPL-31Xt battery I had for a project was even more impressive in terms of voltage held under load and its ability to accept HUGE recharging currents.
My Northstar is both my Engine starting battery and house battery at the moment, and it seems to be Okay with that. I can plug in and not cycle it overnight, but, well lately, I am anyway. The voltages it holds for the AH removed, still impresses me at 20 months of age and ~ 120 deep cycles, and even with 55AH removed from a 91AH battery, it easily cranks my v8 engine.
I am debating the necessity of a house battery, at least in summertime.
