Shouldn't have to replace it for a long time (if ever) and seems to work fine. More expensive than lead acid but more convenient than service appointment for a 12v battery.
I did the startup thing. The ROI was crap compared to working at Google.
If you want to do the startup thing go ahead. You will have more stress and less money at the end of it compared to Google but Google will still be there to hire you at the end.
