I vote for absolyte.
I have a customer with 22kw of PV (8 MX60s), an 8 stack of Outback FX inverters
and a 9600Ah @ 48V Absolyte IIP AGM battery bank. It has been going strong
since 2006.

Howdy Gents,
I have a project (high altitude, off grid, 25 kw PV, 9 x SI5048's,
multicluster) where I am considering two similar batteries.
The Absolyte GP (GNB 100G17) vs the Deka Unigy II (AVR95-19). Both have
similar reported Lifecycle curves, 1200-1300 cycles at 80% DOD.
Any field
Wes,
While I don't have experience with the Deka Unigy AGM's, I can tell you that
we are experiencing many failures of the 4D, 8D and other 6 and 12 volt Deka
AGM batteries. The company will not respond to the problems so we will never
sell another Deka or MK (made by Deka) AGM battery.
