and as far as LiPO4 goes AES is certainly neck and neck with the VERY best of LFP. Their BMS is very robust and well designed (And they're made in Canada)

Howie,<br>
I\u2019ve used a few different brands and am currently using the Discover AES, I have a quad stack of the coupled to an dual stack of XW inverters and they are working great,
<br>
As for another post comment that these companies are looking to be bought out, Discover is long time battery manufacturer and I feel pretty confident they will be here to honor the warranty.<br>
If you search YouTube you can see a video Discover and I did on my wood shop.<br>
