On the price point its hard to see any advantage with Lithium at a 1000 bucks each. I dont think lithium have a very long life span either if its measured in number of cycles.

Just charged the batteries up from the inbuilt Projecta 240v & they’ve come up to 13.7v, I’ll see if they’ll hold the charge. Had a motorcycle battery last 7yrs using c-tex tender. Will carry further checks, see if ican get a load tester, as they’re a pita to remove .
Can get AGMs for around $250. The trailer is 2019 build but the batteries are unbranded, been good till now just went downhill fast.
Thanks every body for your input’
