What the hell do you mean "fragile?" You left the batteries out there
for a YEAR, probably with a parasitic load on them from the gate
electronics.

There is no lead acid battery that can be resurrected from being drawn
completely down to 0 Volts, and held there for months.

I believe the Firefly lead acid batteries would survive. Check out the
technology on their site.

Sheesh. Those guys need to hire a copywriter. That is a god-awful intro
page. So awful that I couldn't get past it to see what they were hawking.
