Marien Starting Battery =/= Deep cell battery
I was given a Marine Starting battery. I keep killing it. I then learn that is because it is not a deep cell battery. At least I now know.

What voltages are you seeing as you use it? Have you checked the gravity?
I had it tested and it is good. But I kept killing it. Tells it is still a good battery, but not up for what I need it for.
Maybe you need more than one. Even a true deep cycle may not help you if you try to pull too many amp hours. I run six GC2 and use all they have. Do an energy audit.
Hoow do I do one? Only thing besides the lights is the furnace.
Suggest you Google "the 12 Volt Side of Life". Your battery is used for more than just lights.
