Sure, but not overtly. Just examine how the Chickenhawks of our time dodged service in Vietnam, they used relationships, influence, attorneys, & doctors to game the selective service system.
A deep cycle battery traffic signal. A deep-cycle battery is a lead-acid battery designed to be regularly deeply discharged using most of its capacity. In contrast, starter batteries (e.g. most automotive batteries) are designed to deliver short, high-current bursts for cranking the engine, thus frequently discharging only a small part of their capacity.
Batteries are divided in two ways, by application (what they are used for) and construction (how they are built). The major applications are automotive, marine, and deep-cycle. Deep-cycle includes solar electric (PV), backup power, and RV and boat house batteries.
