Lithium batteries and new solar charger
I am replacing my 4 6V batteries I think 2 lithium, have never been impressed by the 30A PWM charger for my 600W solar, probably my fault for using 8 avg wire on a 9m run. Thinking if I get a Victron ...

Still no answer :(
So if 10v is true zero and is 100AH down for the BB 100AH battery like it says, then people are fooling themselves thinking it is really a 120AH batt so they are not really going that low all the way to zero.
We can't know what is true unless we know the individual cell's specs. I can only imagine where you got the idea about 'true' zero.
With the drop-in packs, all you will be able to observe is the range of Voltage and rates of charge and discharge that are controlled by the BMS. The BMS is set up to enforce certain Volt, Amp, and Temperature limits inherent to the chemistry of the cells inside. What you are getting is a long warranty at a price. The drop-in's BMS will do its best to prevent you from using that warranty by denying you access to those cells.
