Shared Vanagon Dictionary

  • deep-cycle

    Battery type for frequent discharge and recharge

  • Deep Cycle Battery

    A battery designed for repeated, prolonged discharge and recharge, rather than chiefly for the brief high current used to start an engine. In camper discussions this distinction helps explain a leisure battery’s role. “Deep-cycle” is a duty description, not permission to drain any battery completely; chemistry and manufacturer limits still matter.

  • Absorbed electrolyte

    Type of deep-cycle battery using absorbed electrolyte and recombinant technology

  • Deep discharge

    Discharging a battery to a low state of charge. It does not necessarily mean zero charge or zero terminal voltage. In the lead-acid context of Gerry’s FAQ, repeated deep discharge can shorten useful life. A “deep-cycle” label does not remove the battery manufacturer’s discharge limits.
