Anything new in batteries for solar
I have four 31 size lead acid batteries. They are heavy and you only get to used half their capacity. Is anything come up recently that could be a reasonable replacement--probably lithium?

It would take a "hydrogen" battery to allow me to lift those L-16's. Getting old and feeble is no picnic bobbalouie.
Remember that post of mine years ago, about the couple who traveled to Central America. She marked his stuff with a red X. He marked hers with a black 0.
Twenty dollar "fine" for each untouched end-of-trip packed item (didn't count for 1st aid stuff and spares like filters).
I forgot the exact numbers for the end of the trip but it was a riot.
He posted the following year - "I believe we left for Canada this year over a thousand pounds lighter".
Battery types are like vehicle brands, or tools, or appliances, or just about anything else...they have strong points and they have weak points. But like two mechanics arguing over which brand is "better" Mac or Snap-On, passionate arguments for and against seem to get swallowed up in the roar of reality.
But laying the claims on, a bit too thick either pro or con, does the curious spectator little good. Yeah. Projects. Youngsters have to learn how to keep bar floors from rearing up and smacking them in the face.
