Great you want the cheapest packaged unit / box. At the end of the day profit is made some where. I've been burned by lithium-ion, so they're not my thing. Look up their safety record / requirements, look at their cold weather performance a.k.a. charging. I think going cheap on batteries period...

Power engineer here, If you have an RV you should have capacity for on board batteries. The weight will not make a difference in gas milage. Use wet batteries if vent to the outside and AGM if not will will save a huge chunk of change. These boxes are nothing more than a marketing ploy. Your RV...

I didn't know where to ask this, but when covid is over are Canadians allowed to camp on say BLM lands? Is it ok to join future RTR's? Just asking Steve
