I had one GP24 Sears die Hard that went just short of 10 years. From May to Sept each year it was hooked to a 15 watt panel, during those months I put in about 25-40 days of boondocking, the only recharge was on genny for about 30-45 minutes in the morning while running the electric coffee pot and toaster. I can't say fr sure how much power I used exactly, a couple of lights for maybe an hour a night, maybe an hour or two of TV and the odd night that the furnace ran.
During the off season that battery was connected full time to a VDC battery minder, I think I may have added distilled water to it once a year.
