I have used uninterruptable power supplies and standby power supplies for 
decades at work to keep mission-critical hardware online. I concur fully with 
Tom - depending upon the equipment they are used in and the quality of the 
original cells I replace gel cells every three to five years. It is much better 
to replace cells at a time of my choosing than to try to stretch their use and 
have them fail when needed.
