That's interesting. Do you have the actual manufacturers discharge
graphs that the author says they -for some reason- don't seem to supply?

Just go look them up. There's no secret. I don't know why the author
seems to think there is. Indeed, the article you posted in reply to
Roger down the thread has some good info on this. Did you read it?

Yes I actually have the printed version of that doc, but I don't think
there is even a hint of being able to use a AGM for 8+ years while
deep-cycling... ?

In any case, the author of your first link doesn't provide a single
test or citation to support his views, so why should we believe him?

... If the AGM
manufacturers have nothing to hide then that info will be advertised on
their websites.

Err, I was hoping you would have the links handy... ;-)

It is.
