6v battery lifespan?
What is the average lifespan of 6v batteries? What would shorten the typical lifespan? Is there a big difference in longevity between the different types of 6v batteries? Thanks

I have 2 6-volt T105's that I bought new in 2008. I installed a disconnect switch after about 1 year because my converter seemed to over charge them while on shore power. I use a volt meter to keep an eye on them while dry camping and as far as I know, they have only dropped a little below 50% of full charge a couple of times.
Smart charger/convertor or old style transformer charger/convertor?
If we're spending $300-600 on batteries, it makes sense to invest in a $200 charger/convertor to make them last.
