Hi nine,
At least in my experience, there is, with proper care about zero difference in lifespan. My previous walmart group 29's lasted 9 years until the new owner decided that the old magnatec converter should be plugged in 24/7. That did them in. My current bank is 3 at 4 years old and 4 at 8 years old.
If I could fit in 2 volt cells (@ 800 amp-hours) I'd go for them. But there is no way to get them to fit.
