My in-laws, after having a dead battery decided they need a working booster pac around. After coming home with the completely wrong thing I told them I would find something for them. After some searching and looking at prices I figured I should go see what kind of battery was in their dead booster pack and price out that option as well.
It's a Solar ES2500 with a 12V 17ah Portalac battery (PE12v17)
I can get a replacement battery for the PE12v17 on ebay for 33.50 or 39.99. In the picture of the batteries, it says "do not charge in sealed container". Are these batteries I'm currently looking at not acceptable for being installed inside the booster pack case? I'm not with the unit so I don't know if it had that warning on the original or not.
battery 1
battery2
Any help or comments on replacing battery in old unit vs buying a new one or on what/which battery I should be looking for/using for the replacement?
