Hey everybody, i need a battery for my bait tank and i found these cheap batteries on ebay but im kind of hesitant to order one cause i dont have good luck with made in china stuff on ebay. Heres the link http://www.ebay.com/itm/UPG-6V-12ah-6-Volt-12-amp-hour-SLA-Battery-RBC52-Tripplite-/130728829660?forcev4exp=true&forceRpt=true#ht_5807wt_980
Can someone give me some more info on these batteries or have a review for them? Is it worth the extra 10$ to buy the panasonic battery? And ive been looking around for a long time trying to find a 3/4 inch 90 degree angle fitting for the water to come in and 3/4 inch is the only one that will fit my rule pump. If anyone knows where i can get one please let me know cause ive been to several different hardware store and cant find one. Thanks everyone and good night.

They should work fine, but if you have a Hobie bait tank check to see if it will fit in the slot. Other wise you will need to go to the UB6075, it is slightly narrower.

Don't know where your located but I buy my batteries at a shop off of Convoy exit off the 52 freeway. I don't remember the name but was directed to them by OEX mission bay. Brand new 12v for 10 bucks and many sizes to chose from.

This is the place for every type battery you will ever need. Killer pricing and they make batteries for other sellers.

See you,
