Hi Gonebush
I would think since it is a deep cycle it's /was 63 ahr.
Their output does decrease with age so no idea what it's present capacity may be.

Hi GB,

In my experience the model number gives you the info.about the battery, in your case e.g.

uxh - that is the size of the battery, L x W x H.
63 - A/hr rating
12 - the voltage

This method of reading the model numbers would apply in the vast majority of cases.

why would you buy a second hand battery not knowing what it is , and how old it may be ?

may be 1 AMP hr --- not knowing its history

when you see the size of it you know it's not a 1 amp, it's quite a good size, but being on a pension we need to watch the $ so when we came across this at $15 it was worth the gamble, even if it hasn't got many years left in it what does it owe us?, we have since put it on the charger and all seems good.
