Still valid.  That battery will power your 1 amp load for 122 hours.
I realize when comparing apples to apples, normally a 10 or 20 hour rate is quoted. And batts always have more capacity when lightly loaded. But comparing to a trojan at twice the cost it seems a very good value.

122*12=1467 wH

83/1467=$0.056 $/wH

5.6 cents per watt hour.

That is a new low record for me I think.
If they had a reasonable life expectance I have never seen a better deal I don't think.

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....
