4.9 out of 10

It stores 2,560 Wh, so it scores 7 on capacity.

At 45.59 lb on Redodo's spec table it holds 56.2 Wh per pound, so it scores 6 on efficiency.

Redodo rates its BMS at 200 A maximum continuous discharge, 1.0C on 200 Ah, with a 600 A one-second surge in its manual, so it scores 5 on operating range.

Redodo's spec table gives more than 4,000 cycles and the same page gives 4,000 or more at 100% depth of discharge and up to 15,000 at 60%, with no end-of-life capacity on the page or in its manual, so the 4,000 is scored and taken one rung down for the missing end point, and it scores 6 on lifespan.

It carries an IP65 rating and allows four in series and four in parallel, but has no Bluetooth, no low-temperature charge cut-off, no heating and no CAN or RS485 port, so it scores 3 on features.

Redodo's warranty policy gives its 12 V batteries of 20 Ah and up 5 years, with no proration of the repair or replacement term, so it scores 6 on warranty and support.
