They also have a shorter lifetime and perhaps more importantly, worse max depth of discharge. Compared to more modern battery chemistries, I suspect you end up paying more with lead acid to get the same amount of available power (just not up front) over a similar battery lifespan.
You’re right! A lead acid battery should not be discharged past half of its capacity, it shortened the lifespan of the battery if you do.
So, you need at least double your regular watt-hours that you use overnight in storage plus the batteries will need ongoing maintenance for it to last as long as possible.
