Great discussion. I looked for a Panasonic inverter micro and they are all more than 900 watts. Smallest was 1000. Might still draw less but I didn’t keep looking for specs.
The Battleborn have come down in price and the LION went up. I got them at Costco on sale in May for $799 each when two were purchased. They were quickly sold out.
The Battleborn are 12.76 × 6.86 × 8.95 in and I was limited to under 12” in the battery box. The LION are 10.2" L X 6.6" W X 8.8" H (9.8" H to top of post) so I could fit two with some insulation in my under step space.
The box was deep enough to fit the DC to DC charger on top of the batteries. It is on a 1/8” piece of scrap plywood that is fitted around the battery posts.
