I had a pair of Optima yellow top's on an APC 1400RM2U for about 7
years. One developed a bad cell. The other is still working fine in one
of the work trucks today. :) Those are AGM. Was the cheapest option at
the time.

I assume these aren't AGM.

Have you looked at marine deep cycle batteries? I'm not sure what
the 100 hour discharge rate is (I don't think the ones I was
looking at listed it), but if I remember correctly, they were
around $80 for somewhere around 100 ah @ 20 hour discharge rate
last time I was looking up prices.

Not in a moving vehicle, in an temperature controlled space.

Float operation.
I think that even if they were cheap crap, they might do OK.

So is there something about these batteries that gives you a good
feeling as to actual quality beyond the marketing blurb with the
product? I only have the pure weight to be an independent
judge right
now.
