In real life, you don't get 300x"100Ah" cycles with %100discharge. The rated capacity drops drastically after a few full discharges and the damage is permanent. The mathematics isn't simple as it's in this video. So, don't discharge more than %50 unless it's an emergency.
Sorry.... Im not that clued up with this.... Is it best to charge my inverter's battery right after every single use or not wait until battery drops below 50%?
@@dinxpe6592 I would say they don't give a shit about customer confidence in their batteries. Or the company receptionist was asked to reply to posts. That said, i just keep my batteries topped up all the time using a 160w solar panel and MPPT controller or you can use a smart charger for the battery/s you have using mains power at home. I am no expert either but have just tried to maintain full capacity as a benchmark. Leaving them discharged is not good. If your battery is going flat quickly, reduce load or get another battery, i have 3 in my landcruiser, 1 AGM, (separate) Century N70T, used for the fridge and the standard start battery that is just for the car. Bit of guesswork but it all seems to work and the batteries are lasting well, 4+ years so far :-) Glen. South Australia.
All good, however on a camping trip how do you know you have achieved a 50% discharge? Can you measure the voltage?
Cheap volt meter. Stay above 12.1v

How about you answer the question instead of posting a heart?

@@Glendram Thanks a lot man👍... Same advice I got from a battery lab. Appreciate it.

What voltage is 50% in deep cycle battery? 12.1v?
