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,
I'm only going by what I've read on line. If you want a SUPER POWER Li then go to Lithium Tintinate It can do 10 C, and be charged at -40. It only costs $1900 per 100 amp-hour @ 12 volts.
It may be the information is out of date. It was from a test of an LiFePo4 by a W. Prouse.
Well, I gotta admit Li-T sounds like one heck of a battery (likely, purposely engineered for cold temps?), but when comparing to SiO2, $1900 for 100a/hrs seems like a boat load of extra moola $$ - lol
FWIW, even my former two 6v GC’s (210a/hr gross) could routinely (but individually) power up a 1500w microwave and the 11k btu Mach 1 P.S. air conditioner (albeit with plenty of associated reactance).
