The best kind of time!

There are several on Amazon with 1000+ reviews right around that price point.

My advice not to rely on Amazon reviews. Pure Garbage, learned the hard way.
Bought a product with 13,000 5 star reviews. Received it and it doesn't work out of the box.
Started sorting reviews by most recent and all of them one star with same issue product will not even turn on!!!
Returned to Amazon and left 1 star review. 3 weeks later contacted by seller offering me free product or $150 Amazon gift card.
You can guess the catch Remove your 1 star review!
I offered them to keep their product and $150. Updated my review with what they offered me.
So from now on I buy products from Amazon either by reputable companies or companies I researched elsewhere.
Amazon reviews are not the same as they were before.

Thats interesting on the recommendation (and admirable) from BB and XS power about amp draw and heir recommendation, seems like I learn something new all the time.. love it. I am a bit surprised by that though, the BB battery has a high continuous amp draw rating, do you remember their reasoning behind the recommendation to use AGM batteries? At the very least, four of their 100Ah in // would provide an enormous amount of current.

Speaking of current, I see you did your research on AGM batteries and their charge rates, the AGM’s can take 25 easily as long as the voltage doesn’t get above 14.7. Those chargers look burly!

Did you watch this video? Probably the most concise and informative piece I’ve seen on battery performance.

My hope is that you come up with a great set up for your boat! I’ve been very happy with my AGM start / LiFePO4 house set up as by the end of the day with the group 24 FLA battery I’d have to run the engines to support the house battery as it’s voltage was dropping, with the LiFePO4 house battery I can run my live well fill pump and the aerator all day along with my MFD etc with no issues whatsoever.

I also hope you are enjoying life in Canyon Lake! Friends of mine lived there for a long time.

Yeah... I definately don't know the science behind it and just took their word as gospel. The system was almost 6,000 watts and I can't even remember the amperage draw. It had something to do with the size and the way sound systems draw power.

It would be nice to find a lifepo4 solution to the stereo battery bank, but at this point I have too much money invested in the four XS 3100 AGMs and four 25amp onboard chargers to switch it up. They definitely get the job done.

Oh, and we're definitely looking forward to Canyon Lake! Now if the 2024 models would just arrive so we can get going on this build!
