But that is for a brand spanking new battery. An old deep cycle could easily be 1% per day.
I hear YOU saying that. That makes two "non-experts" who hold that opinion.
The Wiki article was NOT specifically talking about "deep cycle" batteries and the original post claimed a 10% difference at the high end of conventional versus deep cycle rates. Nothing was said about battery age or temperature.
I was and still am trying to get a handle on this claimed higher discharge rate for deep cycles.....in general. It is the first I've head this and am honestly trying to verify it.
No offense and nothing personal but I do NOT take the word of people I don't know posting anonymously on the Internet and if you know how Wiki works, it isn't much better in some cases.
