How good are lifeline batteries?
When discharged to the BCI recommended 50%, Lifeline batteries provide nearly 1000 life cycles, which is significantly more than other technologies. Other flooded and gelled batteries fall between 300 to 450 life cycles at 50% discharges.
How long do lifeline batteries last?
They lasted for 6 years of fairly heavy use, even though we abused the starting battery by using it overnight a few times, running it down. These are the best deep cycle batteries we have found.
How long do Lifeline AGM batteries last?

What is dual purpose battery?
Dual Purpose batteries are typically mid capacity batteries that can function in both lighter starting and lighter deep cycle applications. A good example would be a smaller horsepower engine boat that also has a depth finder and small live well, but can only fit one battery on board. The dual purpose battery can fill this need.
