SiO2 Batteries
I'd like to hear from people who use the SiO2 batteries. Are you happy with them? Charging methods? What kind of current loads do you have?

What is your intended use?
Boondocking. I have 220W of solar with a MPPT charger. No AC appliances. I have two 100AH deep-cycle AGM batteries now.
I am attracted by the LiFePo4 batteries for their reducted weight and current capability but not their need for a special charger. The SiO2 eeidently can use a standard charger.
If your charger is programmable, the settings for LiFePo4 are not complicated. I'm a little puzzled though - if you're going to invest significant $ in batteries, a small investment in a new charger (if needed) is a problem?
