I have the lifelines, but I have not been cruising with them. I will tell you that I have had no issues to this point. I will also say that (IIRC) the Lifelines are a bit of a different breed. I believe they rated at over 1000 cycles versus the low 300's for Deka. You will need to verify the later as I do not have time to look it up - but I am pretty sure.

Before you buy, call Lifeline and ask them why their batteries are that much better. I did. They convinced me. Here is the number: 626-969-6886, ask for Andrew. He is a straight shooter. Others seem very knowledgeable too.

On the flip side, Cam has been happy with his Dekas so they may fit your needs?? At least it is worth a call.
