I guess it's ok for those with two axles & needing 170Ahr, otherwise it's a bit heavy.
How many of you chaps can lift 50kg easily from under the bed, etc?

I bought a couple of Eaton UPS 130 ah used for $100 each last year for our half lap , similar type to those ones , mine are bloody heavy too @ 46kg each , luckily l could take a panel out of the bed base framing and wheel them in ....

Once there was 25 bags of cement to the tonne, with no handles!

I found these batteries at my local scrap metal yard .Payed $100.00 each for them. They had close 100 of these batteries along with a few 190 Ah for the same price. I have two of these 100 Ah batteries and have been on solar for a few months and run every thing in my ham radio shack.

Those were the days when men were men,and many enjoyed hard physical work.A bag of cement used to weigh around 40kg,and drivers used to load their trucks by hand! Cheers

Lol , nah mate , they've become smarter .... my backs half buggered from heavy work all of my life , if l had the time over again and had the option of lighter work loads ld take it .... nothing to do with being a " tough guy " , yes at the time your fit and it's great but the strain on all your body parts catches up as you get older ..... obviously you didn't do enough of it to cause you any grief......
I think the worst thing about loading a semi back in the day, was trying to throw the 56 ft long by 24 ft wide, rolled up tarp on my trailer, and I never really mastered it, so depending on load and if a forklift was around, that helped, otherwise, I would throw it on the trailer deck and as the load go higher, I would just move it up, but it was a pain, and pain is what I have now after all that work.
