There is a lot of good information. I appreciate everyone's input. Going to take some time to absorb all of it so I can decide how to proceed. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the threads on this.

I’m glad you found my thread helpful! Let me know if you think of any questions and If be happy to answer from my experience. I’m working on installation in my trailer now and was excited to eliminate 150# of lead acid dead weight from my trailer! The power to weight ratio alone is good reason to consider LiFePO4, let alone the other advantages (flat voltage curve, almost no voltage drop when using, 2-5000 cycle life and then still have 80% original capacity, safer than Lithium Ion, more cost effective in the long run, etc. etc.). And more fun to research and build yourself.
