[QUOTE="Still Afloat, post: 513432, member: 32426"] I paid over $600 for my first LiFePO (60 A/hr) about 15 years ago. The technology was newer then and there were fewer products and competitors. That’s about twice the price of a good 100 A/hr LiFePO today, excluding extra features like low temp charge, protection, heaters and internal BT power monitoring. Personally, I don’t need all the bell and whistles, just a good quality battery at a reasonable price. FYI - That old 60 A/hr LiFePO is still in use. Used it yesterday to run the electric winch on my boat trailer. I’m sure the capacity isn’t what it used to be but, it’s still fine for many applications. [/QUOTE]
