Check around on batteries carefully, sometimes Alarm people can do
or get the right size at better prices than typical component suppliers.

That was true of the 11Ah size used on SmartUPS1000, may also
be true of the 420 - but yes, your batteries are defective.

That said, if you want to be sure, find an alarm installer and ask if
they can put your batteries on their lead-acid capacity tester. They
are expensive LCD capacity assessors (the units, not the people :-)
