One advantage of certain 12V 9Ah batteries is they are the same size as the common UB1270 (12V 7Ah) batteries found in a lot of APC battery backups. So you can always find a replacement in an emergency, at a Batteries Plus or even a hardware store.

I liked the FIAMM 12SLA12 due to being 12v 12 aH and only about 3" thick. That makes it easier to get into a small box at a repeater site. Howveer, that size seems rare among manufacturers and it appears that Fiamm has discontinued it. http://www.interstatebatteries.com/powercare/stationary/pdf/SLA_Monolite_VRLA_Tel.pdf ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com Midwest Internet Exchange http://www.midwest-ix.com
