RCT inverter getting a lithium battery

[Jengo]

Is it worth replacing the gel battery in my RCT T 1000 inverter with a lithium ion phosphate battery given that the area we’re in has lots of load shedding and power outages?
We bought the inverter to run the router, alarm back up battery, pc laptop etc.
We can’t afford to keep replacing the battery which runs down and lasts only 20 mins now after 7 months.
Thanks.

yea imo i would always replace gel/lead acid with lifepo4

pretty sure there will be people that have done this on this model
know on the similar mecer trolley people have

if for some reason an inverter doesn't play nice i would replace the inverter and just see that as the next battery replacement, a person simply can't afford not to go lifepo4

though i recall someone having a bad experience on an rct putting a lifepo4
and someone else doing it succesfully

so the one might have been a dud battery who knows

Its always worth replacing gel with LFP.
