Kirkland Marine Deep Cycle Battery

[W. eWatson]

About two years ago I bought the Kirkland battery in Subject.
Unfortunately, the project I had intended it for never developed.
However, I have had it on a trickle charge for a good bit of that time.
The battery probably cost about $100. I'm looking at the possibility of
selling it locally. Would it still be useful at close to its initial
usefulness?

You didn't say how it was originally going to be used so how can we say
if it will still be good for that.
If you maintained it properly it should have useful life left.

It would be plugged into a 1250 Watt Tripp-Lite ac to dc power inverter.

You mean DC to AC?
Inverters are demanding on a battery. Every amp drawn at 120 vac takes
10 times that from the battery at 12 VDC. At full rated output you would
be demanding over 100 amps from the battery.
