Here's a good report from GS-Yuasa, the maker.
http://www.gs-yuasa.com/us/technic/vol5/pdf/05_1_021.pdf
Among the takeaways are a max discharge rate of 300A (for the cells, not our cars), 85% capacity after 1000 cycles at 25 degrees C (77 F), and the less time spent at float charge, the better, ESPECIALLY at warmer temps.

Here's a similar paper on an improved version of the LEV50, published this June. 10% better capacity and other improvements too.
