If its holding the voltage,go for it.As far as it being safe or not I wouldnt worry, your bait may die but there wont be a Cherobyl-like catastrophe...

I use the same exact batteries.
As far as being two years old, charge it up and try it at home. If it has not been charged in two years......possibly crap ![]() |

Make sure that it is well secured, cause at 11 lbs it could do some damage in surf launching/landing. Not to mention be damaged if it is moving around.

you got 2 good kayak batteries in there, as long as they are in good condition. In APC UPses, they last 3 to 5 years. I believe they're glued together - separate them, no need to cary both of them.

these are the same ones that i have been using. i get them from work, we use a lot of apc ups and i get the old batteries that we are replacing in the ups's.
like mentioned earlier they are used maybe a couple of years, but they are still good. i use it for my fish finder and they last for the whole day. haven't used it more than that but i check the charge when i get back and there is still alot of life in them. i have given some to stinkymatt and ericko and we haven't had any problems. also the batteries are double sided taped so use a picture frame wire to separate. i also used a battery charger from sears 12v to charge them with. i added a male female connector from west marine that fits right into the sears battery charger connectors. |

Thanks for the batteries Tim (tagyak). When I got them separated they turned out to be (2) 7.2amp batteries. Perfect for standard FF use. Just used a putty knife to separate the 2 sided tape holding the together. They charged right up and topped off with my trickle charger.
