I had no idea either, and did much the same as Jeremy.
The main problem I had was delivery - if it's lead acid based, then it's HEAVY - and the first two that were delivered had clearly been dropped / thrown / fallen off the truck and had to go back. And given that the max distance it could travel in the UK is around 800 miles, that doesn't bode well ...

The third one was fine, and lasted a couple of years before just dying when the power failed - batteries were fine, but when it switched to backup, it stopped powering it's own electronics ... Sigh | :sigh:

I didn't replace it.

"Data line" I think menas a USB connection to your PC so you can monitor battery power etc. Handy, but the PC software tends to be pretty ropey.
