The whole thing does take some logical thinking for sure.
If you are one of those who is already getting the job done, using as much as you want daily and recharging by solar/gen with Flooded or AGM "fast enough" , why spend a ton of money for the latest shiny object just to keep up with the latest fashion?
You need to calculate what good it would do you to have those very expensive batteries instead of what you have now. To do that you need good information on just what those expensive batteries can and cannot do.
Lots of info out there on Li, but very little on SiO2. Some of that "information" is by salesmen ( "drummers" ) making clever claims (smoke and mirrors). It is up to the RVer to do his own math for his own scenario(s).
Even then, you might find that DW will move the goalposts on you! So now you have to figure out Plan B :)
