The deeeeeeeeeepest cycle 6-cell flooded car jar battery construction is a laugh compared to a standard golf car GC220 like a Trojan T105. Meaning the Trojan 6 cell RV battery is inferior for durability and forgiveness. There is just NO substitute for plate thickness plus acid capacity.
When ANY of Lifeline's "competition" start furnishing plate thickness specs then I would take note. Concorde, + Rolls and Trojan DOMINATE cruising sailboat tech forums for a reason. Fullriver has a good reputation. Perhaps because at sea the issue can become life or death and circumnavigation or "jumping the puddle" to the south seas is a different world - a bitterly cruel lesson in what works and what doesn't.
