Ok, learned something new. Thank you.
Lithium Iron Phosphate does sound pretty good. However, at 800 bucks a battery, I'll save that for the next upgrade cycle in a few years.
By then the price might have come down to some manageable level so I could afford it.
$270 for a Trojan group 31 AGM vs. $800-ish for the latest stuff, I'll just get another Trojan and have money left over for some solar panels and a controller.
Heh.
My thought exactly. Time and technology advances will bring the price down, it always does. I can wait too. Nice thing is you can put them anywhere, even upside down and they need no venting so a conventional battery box is not needed.
