Again, I agree with what you posted lwmcquire. There is no best house battery type. It is a matter of use, convenience, cost and capacity. There are many Internet portals that list the advantages and disadvantages of the different types of batteries. Each battery type has several sub types and different manufactures of the sub types hype their differences. For instance is battery listed as marine/RV AGM (described as more rugged than an deep cycle RV battery) better than deep cycle labeled AGM (described as longer life)? Is the fact that a LiFePo4 battery cannot be charged when its temperature is below 32 F degrees important? If you are going to trade coaches every five years, do you need the "best" batteries?
