Hi All:

I'm a bit confused here. I use a high CCA rated deep cycle battery because I was under the impression that normal lead-acid automotive batteries were not designed for repeated drain-downs and recharges; that this sort of activity would damage the internal plates of the battery, while deep cycle cells are designed for repeated drainings and recharges.

Regards,

Alan

Stay away from deep cycle batteries for winching they are designed for slow deep discharge.
