- A true deep cycle battery, such as Rolls is capable of thousands of these hard cycles during its life without losing its capacity.
- Comparatively, many advertised deep cycle batteries composed of thin plates, excessively porous separators, and low density plate oxides will suffer permanent capacity loss after a few dozen cycles and will shortly sulfate or shed plate material and fail.
- Batteries without substantial materials designed for true deep-cycling will lose more than half of their capacity after only a few cycles.
- A 200 Amp-hour battery will shortly become a 100 Amp-hour battery for the remainder of its shortened service life.
- What initially may seem to be an inexpensive battery to purchase, now costs twice as much per Amp-hour.
- True Deep cycle batteries will perform well as cranking batteries, however, cranking batteries will not survive deep cycle use.
The Rolls Surrette Deep Cycle battery is our preferred battery.
