How long will a deep cycle battery last?
The maximum service life and performance of a deep cycle battery will depend on how often if is used and how well it is maintained, including recharges. Batteries that are rated in the cycle life should deliver that number of cycles. Cycles are defined as one complete discharge and recharge. If the battery meets the daily usage requirements, you can assume that you will get one day of use for each cycle the battery is rated at. This may not apply if your battery is stored for long periods of time or if it is not well maintained.
