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.
Should I completely discharge a deep-cycle battery the first few times I use it? No. A marine/RV deep-cycle battery does not require a complete discharge at any time in its service life. For best results, we recommend a shallow or moderate discharge the first 5 to 20 cycles.
