I'd worry about the longevity of those, looking at the dimensions it could only be a circa 40Ah lead acid inside it or less. Given my charger is 2 x 10A, that's only 2hrs of charging before it's dead, and each cycle taking around 25mins that's only 4 x charges of cells.

I only have 2 sets of cells per car so need the extra headroom a decent 75 or 100Ah lead acid can provide.
