I have a customer who has purchased this type of unit with 6 syaxr9b9 battery cabinets about 7 months ago, but has not installed it yet? Will the batteries still be good in them?

the cabinets should ship with the batteries turned off via the round black switch on the front. they also have a red label on them i believe warning you about turning them on. as long as they havent been turned on and left in the frame to discharge, they most likely will be fine. it is recommended that batteries are charged every 6 months or so but as long they have been left in a good environment (not really hot) then 7 months shouldnt be an issue.
