LiFePO4 - SOK or Renogy.
Not looking for a big bank or high charge/discharge currents. Don't need charging below freezing. In Canada things become difficult/expensive. Narrowed down to these 2: 1)SOK, 100AH, $CAD 975 ...

3 tons,
SiO2 vs LiFePo4 are a wash as far as price per cycle--unless planning to "roll your own" then Li would win.
I think even buying premade LFP they would edage out Sio2 on price per cycle. your looking at 2500-4000 cycles at 100% depth of discharge (depending on manufacture) with the LFP and only 1200 at 100% for SiO2. especialy with the initial cost per 100AH battery about the same now.
but who is going to use there batteries like that anyways? i know when i upgrade ill still base my bank on 50% use max and have the rest for emergencys.

No
I do use my batteries heavily
