   Deep-cycle batteries (like the Optima yellow-tops) are better then regular 
batteries at handling the occasional deep discharge due to leaving the lights 
on, or limping home with a dead generator, or running the radio at Lovers Lane 
for hours on end.  If you've done any of these things more than once in the 
past year, then perhaps you have deep-cycle tendencies.  :)
   Deep-cycle batteries are used in electric vehicles too, for obvious reasons.
   They weigh more than regular batteries because the lead is thicker to handle 
the sustained current without overheating.
