Yep, the consensus in many of the ham radio forums is that Bioenno is the best.
And their customer service gets rave reviews.
But I'm cheap.
I recently picked up an EcoWorthy 20Ah LiFePo4 battery when they were on sale on Amazon.
It replaces another cheap Miadi 8Ah LiFePo4 battery that, sorry to admit, I did not care for properly.
I ran FT8 on my FT-450D for a few hours, running the battery down to 40% and recharged.
So after only one charge cycle, the jury is still out.
But this time, I will regularly maintain the battery and expect it to last a long time based on the reviews.
BTW, this YouTuber tears down and reviews lots of batteries: ?
(and what I've learned from him correlates well with what my electrical engineer buddies tell me).
FYI.
