    Budget aside, no brainer, 2 BB.
    Lighter, more usable power and more recharge cycles.

    You need to ask tougher questions :-)

    Battleborn (LiFePO4) wins hands down.

    I'm currently eyeballing one of these. Still on the fence and in no hurry.

    I’m thinking, start with one and see how it goes and then get a second one if the need arises. The second one would need to be added fairly quickly in order the keep the ages in check.

    Just talking in round, crude numbers, 2 Battleborn will cost $2000 where as 4 6V agm will cost $1000. Limit the agm to 50% give you adequate agm battery life and the same power as the 2 lithiums. The agm should last 4 years, lithium will last much longer. To get fast charge capability of the lithium, add $500 for a better charger. If you live off of shore power for longer than a week, add solar so pick a number, maybe $1500 for panels and controller.

    Thanks for the reminder! They are out of stock, but I placed a pre-order, hoping it is in by mid-January when we are planning to head south.

    From what I've read. They ship from China via California once ordered, hit customs in CA and then on their way to you. Good luck on the timing. It'l be close maybe.
