Lithium-ion and solar panel life cycles?
With a lithium-ion battery is it better to run it down or keep solar plugged in? I have an Engel compressor refer/freezer that draws 36-37 watts when it runs..I also have a portable 100 watt solar ...

I did a quick look on Amazon,
There it seems process are more like 1/2 of Lithium not 1/3

$449.12 USD for a 100 amp-hour 12 volt jar. They do offer a small discount starting at 3 units. I'll probably want five, and wish I could afford eight. (seven house, one starting).
Prices are dropping on Li batteries.
What sold me, other than cold weather performance, is the SiO2 can be discharged to stone bone dead 620 times. That flabbergasts me.
