Hi John,
I read the words but fail to comprehend. Do you mean they should not be cycled to 50% (I had heard 80% was, for some brands, safe)?
When I first read that Mr. Musical Fish, I thought "What is.. " turns out I'm not the only John here. :).
In my post: I assumed he had gotten DEEP CYCLE AGM's. deep cycle batteries are farily common in the larger sizes (Like 8D).
50 percent for Deep cycle.. 75-80 for all the others, that is the rule I follow... Which is one of the reasons I'm shopping for six volt within the next two weeks (in 2 weeks I turn the key again and drive this house..... I may drive it past the battery store rather than lug those puppies myself)
