## Description

**Deep Cycle batteries**: 12V cyclic AGM and GEL for motorhome, marine, mobility scooter and small-mid off-grid solar. 50-260 Ah. Ritar, Fullriver and MK selection.
"Deep cycle" means designed to handle 50-80% discharges repeatedly — vs a cranking battery that only tolerates 5-10% before degrading.

## Deep Cycle — for repeated deep discharge

A cranking (SLI) battery is built to deliver high current for 1-3 seconds then recharge to 100%. A deep cycle battery delivers moderate current for hours and survives 500-1,500 cycles at 50% DoD. Essential for motorhome, marine house bank, mobility scooter and solar.
Technology Cycles 50% DoD Life Application
Cyclic AGM 500-700 5-7 yr RV, marine, chair
GEL 700-1200 6-8 yr Mobility, moderate solar
FLA T-105 1200-1500 5-7 yr Family off-grid solar

### **AGM or GEL?**

AGM gives best cost/cycles ratio for normal use. GEL handles deeper discharges and lasts longer, but 30-40% more expensive.

### **Specific charger?**

Yes. Deep cycle batteries need an AGM- or GEL-curve charger. NEVER use a traditional SLI charger.
