I think it was measured at 75 AH. Stone blocks added so the shipping weight would seem correct.

Re the price. those change on a daily basis. Just now with the news all about the backlog at LA/Long Beach harbors and most LI comes from China as I recall. the price is ^^^ once the supply chain starts moving again VVV

Looks interesting. ... Quesiton about battery management System. does it even have one?

Careful you don't end up with one of these batteries for low price and claimed high capacity:

Getting a new 5er soon and strongly considering the Battle Born Batteries. I know there are cheaper ones out there, but these are made in Nevada USA and I’ve heard excellent reports of 1st class customer service and tech support. Also considering adding solar down the road. Anyone tried these?

You mean assembled in Nevada.

Given the power density of batteries and the danger of a fire in an RV, I'd never buy a cheap off-brand.

The only reason I mentioned this battery is because it got a very high rating from Will Prowse. $399 100Ah 12V "Zooms" LiFePO4 Battery Review

If you have not seen any of his YouTube video you need to know that he has been evaluating and testing solar equipment for over 4 years. I trust his opinion.

The first test he did shorting the termanals, which did nothing aside from melt the termanals, would have caused a lead acid battery to expload.

Concur !

This is why a fuse should be as close as possible to the positive terminal on the battery and the positive post needs additional protection.
