if you arent gettin but a years service out of a set of deep cycles something's wrong. over charging, under chargin, letting the water evaporate all will shorten the life of a battery. id suspect the chargin system/method even with just two year battery life.
listen with your eyes---its the only way to beleive what you hear...
