I wonder what experiences folks have had with batteries. I have heard anecdotal remarks regarding all types, I have had experience with Gel, lead-acid, and AGM and am poised to get another set when I return from Tampa.

I have 5 plus years on all my batteries and they are still going strong. But I have never had an "event" such as a deep discharge or an overcharge.

I can probably get more life from them, but at this point I got all I expected, and more, and just do not want the hassle of nursing a set of old batteries if we are on a trip.
