    I'm too far behind the times on LiFepo batteries to offer any advice Kola. So far, my only experience with them is my single 12v battery with built in BMS on my stand-alone internet system, and the same deal for the motorcycle.

    I have been looking at larger lithium packs for if I ever get the house built. I still like the idea of Edison batteries lasting forever, even if they aren't the most efficient option.

    Agreed.

    I made some crude assumptions about energy capacity of those LiFePO4 cells. I came up with $500/KWH. I paid $375/KWH for NiFe, including shipping, because they'll last forever.

    I also posted a question on Amazon, asking for KWH per cell or pack, but don't have any knowledgeable answers, yet.
