[QUOTE="Bob Landry, post: 253715, member: 7025"] Dual Purpose batteries are starting batteries with a little heavier plates. They will handle light loads like a fishfinder, but they will not hold up to the repeated deep discharges such as from a trolling motor. There is no reason not to use a true deep cycle for everything, and that allows you to swap them if needed or you can replace just one. Size does not determine the longevity of deep cycle batteries. The less you discharge them below 50%, the longer they will last. [/QUOTE]
