  • What is "Cycle Use" of a battery?

    What do those figures on my deep cycle battery mean? Cycle Use 14.1 - 14.4V.
    Thanks in advance.

    The voltages that you should charge the battery to when used daily (cycle). 1 cycle would be a discharge and charged back up to be repeated at regular/semiregular intervals.

        Cycle use is daily discharge and recharge
        Float use is like the light in an EXIT sign, where the battery only comes on once a year if the power goes off.
