Uber,
Perhaps you should let us know what inverter you are planning on using and what kind of load. Are the 35 amp fuses in the input side or the output side? Remember that although we demand some pretty high intermittant currents from these batteries, they are not meant for long term high currents. In the constant load at which you are hinting, the manufacturer specification is much lower than the 17 amp hour. At 17 amps, this battery will fall to 10 volts in about 30 minutes. At 30 amps, that falls in about 10 minutes.
