You should never let your batteries get below 12.2v or they will suffer permanent damage.
No they won't. Especially if they are "deep cycle" type.
Simply discharging a wet cell battery doesn't cause it any damage.....unless you get the voltage WAY down, like maybe to 3 volts.
What causes the damage is discharging it and then LEAVING IT LIKE THAT for an extended period of time, like weeks. A few days at 12.0 volts should be no problem.
