Ryland, if you don't mind the question... Where did you find it? And, for how much?

Just out of curiosity - and pardon my ignorance.... Would D8 form factor batteries fit? And would they have less capacity? Last summer I installed 3 (of 7) 12V D8 batteries in a sailboat... They weigh 141 pounds each and the three batteries (Deka floodies) cost a few dollars more than $500 out the door. IIRC, the ones we bought were ~230Ahr - but the size is something like 20x8x11 :/
