In order to deep cycle a battery repeatedly and not destroy it, two 

things are different: the metallurgy of the lead pastes used to make it, 

and the structure of the plates themselves... the metallurgy is more 

forgiving of sulfation; the plate structure is stiffer... better able to 

withstand sustained discharges (which might warp lesser plates/grids); 

but, the stiffer grids occupy space that COULD be occupied with more 

lead paste... hence reducing battery capacity, compared to 

non-deep-cycle batteries.
