Don, Pricess Auto sells everything from tools, to some automotive, to trailer axles, to army surplus (not so much anymore), basically soup to nuts. As they are in the surplus racks, they are new but past their two year shelf life. However, the two that I picked up are in perfect shape. The SBS60 are originally designed for UPS, telecom, power generation, & emergency lighting, etc. Here's a link to the spec sheet:

Yes I know that at 24v the ah is 51ah but when running all the other 12v stuff I want to add, it is really nice to have a deep well to draw from.
