What is Battery Sulfation?
Sulfation, a build-up of lead sulfate crystals, is the number one cause of early failures of lead-acid, sealed AGM or flooded (wet cell-filler caps) batteries. A sulfated battery can lead to:
loss of cranking power longer charging times excessive heat build-up leading to "boil out" shorter running times between charges dramatically shorter battery life Other causes of battery failure include: vibration, contamination, damaged charging plates (due to overheating) and under or over charging.

MonaLisa reacted to Buyeye in Inverter Settings - Help@MonaLisa hi the good news is that you got just under 2000 cycles from your lead acid batteries. The bad news is they are rated for 500 cycles.
Lithium batteries have become much more affordable than 5 years ago and most are rated for 6000 cycles. Now that you brought it up I'm wondering if anyone has had their Lithium batteries for ten years and how they are performing.
