[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 615916, member: 3775"] Yep I have only taken one of mine down to 33% SOC once and that was two weeks ago, every other time I try to keep them above 50%, Yeah when you do the maths on lithium the numbers are mind blowing If you take it down to 80%/20%SOC and it takes you 3 days to do it @ 2000 cycles thats 6000 days Devide that by 365 thats 16.43 years, If you discharge it to where you are getting 6000 @ 3 days per cycle thats 18,000 days thats 49.31 years, of coarse thats hypothetical but it is possible, But in theory the numbers are crazy and would be har to prove, I love the charging speed of these things, If I run 2 x 115Ah deep cycle batteries down to 50% it's going to take me 14 to18 hours to charge them giving me 115Ah of useable power, with the 40Ah Lithium I can charge it in 4 hours and for the same amout of charge time the 40Ah Lithium could give me 128 to 144Ah to use thats 29Ah more power to use and because of the speed they charge at I never seem to run out of power, For stationary long term use AGM/Deep Cycle are the way to go but for life on the move Lithium are life changing, I wouldn't use Lithium for winching where the currant Draw can hit over 400Ah but for every thing else lithium is hard to beat :Y: [/QUOTE]
