I know this has been asked before but no luck searching for it.
My Provonost dump trailer came with a regular battery not a deep cycle. I always though that was a cost move but it is time to replace it and where I buy my batteries the guy says a deep cycle is not for high amp draws like the hydraulic pump motor (which looks like a starter motor) thus it will go bad quicker than a car battery. I hold you guys opinions higher than his so which should I get, a regular battery or deep cycle? If it makes any difference it is always on a maintainer when not in use. Thanks in advance!
