[QUOTE="user 7806, post: 243418, member: 7806"] I and some friends have all had bad luck with Deka batteries, these were not Deep Cycle and were used in street rods. They didn't last at all and had some that failed right out of the box and didn't even last 2 months. If you didn't keep a charger on them they wouldn't turn over the car if left sit for more that a day or two. & this was even with everything disconnected. Never had a probelm exchanging them as they were bought from a local auto parts store. But they were a pain so I gave up and went to Walmart and bought one and it has been fine. Remember Deep Cycle batteries are made to be charged and discharged to a low state. Where a typical car battery is really made for momentary use like starting the vechicle they being recharged.
