No that is reserve which is not AH on the top of the battery it says
122AH...

Sorry now $87...

We have gone to 6V cart batteries for our serious off grid stuff with better
cycling results, but these are what we use for on-grid reserve.
The 6V's we buy are 135 AH and we get fewer cells going bad over 2-3
years... When you have 100 cells at a site, you are going to have
failures... (1.2V cells)... Found it was cheaper replacing 3 cell
batteries than 6 cell batteries...

120AH for $83?
What model is that?

I read that as a 83 AH battery for 1.1K whereas a 120 AH deep cycle from
Walmart is $83... For that price diff you can literally throw away
batteries each year...

That seems expensive for the AH. They sound like they recover better
from deep discharge. The last time I bought 75AH batteries they were
~$200 each. so for somewhere less than half the money you get close
to the same AH and they added bonus of destroying the planet.

I've been seriously looking at solar for off grid, biggest problem
was the batteries but then I found these salt water batteries that
seem to be the solution to all the problems associated with battery
systems, they have a 24v version for a 2.2Kwh cell that I was going
to wire up to an APC-XL ups and see what happened....
