The 12V/24V/48V listing is silly but the meaning is pretty obvious when you click and read.
Renogy appear to have lifted theIr game - now using EV grade cells (prev pouch) with better specs and warranty,
Really wishing any company can make a smart box to turn this kind of battery into a power station like the Bluetti ones.
Those exist from so many companies though.
Battery box with ac and dc ports? gimme a link please?
How is adding ac and dc outputs "smart"?
Generating AC output pure sine wave will make it look a lot smarter.
Ecoflow?
link?
They have bunch of models, something like this is similar capacity (100AH): https://au.ecoflow.com/products/delta-portable-power-station…. there other brands too, Bluetti, Jackery, etc.
@Toxic: I meant I am after a shell/case to turn this kind of cheap batteries in this post into some kind of power station like the one you linked. I thought you were giving me a link for one of those cases.
@Spacexyz: Fair enough, my bad. What you're looking for is battery box. Won't recommend any though as most of the ones you'll find are cheaply made and when I had a choice decided to build my own. If you don't feel like it, try to have a look at any of the kickass ones. You'll probably find some kings stuff out there, but I definitely advise against it as I know people who had fires with their electrical products.
@Toxic: The main issue/limitation with many battery boxes is the fusing and input/output connections - commonly 50A anderson plugs. This is not a problem if you're running 12V fridges, lights and other low power/current drawing appliances but is something to be aware of and ask about, esp if you might occasionally want to use a corded power tool or electric kitchen item.

The linked Anaconda Arkpak has an inverter for 240V connections but it can only handle 300W (25A) so is arguably next to useless.
WOW nice find, but way too much money! I'd get one when under $400.
Just confirmed with Renogy that the warranty is the old poor, below industry standard, 5yr pro rated warranty, despite their "EV" grade cells. So I amend my comment above to:
Impressive specs,
goodpoor warranty, build looks solid
That's what always concerned me about Renogy… If the battery dies at 2.5 years, after jumping through all their hoops, and if they don't blame it on abuse as they tend to do, they'll just give you 50% of your purchase price as a credit towards a new full priced battery… If you had one die prematurely you probably wouldn't want to be buying another, so the warranty is effectively useless IMO…
That 5000 charge cycles needs and Astrix next to it lol. 5000 partial charges?
Yes, minimum, at 80% DoD with 80% of battery capacity still available when that occurs. Simply a comparison standard. Equates to more than a decade of recharging for many applications.
Their 1000W inverter is down to $140.79 also, they're ok for a cheapie…

Maximum charge current 200A? That's insane. I don't believe it.
It's 100A, OP posted the specs for the 300Ah battery…
(Personally I wouldn't run a cheap battery at the full rated current, it's probably sensible to stick to like 75% or such, the same with cheap inverters and such… All cheaper stuff tends to be rated with very little wiggle room so it's probably wise to keep that in mind if you want a long life and reliability)
At 2C it would be. Haven't seen any with > 1C
Been a while since I looked at DCS. That "Extreme" packs quite a punch for its size.
The max charge rate is actually 2.25C (180A, 80Ah) though. Their page claims the A grade cells they use are 6C rated for short burst discharges, which they've downgraded to 400A for 10 sec in the specs. Their recommended charge rate - 50A - is still less than 1C though. I also see that some Victron battery specs have 2C max charge rates in the specs. Presumably both DCS and Victron are confident of the quality of their components/BMS, and the build quality (might have heat dissipation included for example?). Cheaper 12V LFPs will often have lower quality cells, lighter components, mediocre builds, and inferior BMS'.
Conventionally 1C is the max amperage charge rate for 12V LFPs, 0.5C or less recommended. For cheapies especially, and longer life for all LFPs, sticking to a <=0.5C charge rate (and ~80% DoD) is still best practice.
This deal still works with this code

So is it a 100 Ah battery or a 300 Ah battery?
Ah, I see, you've put the price of the 100 Ah battery in the heading, then in the body you've posted the specs of the 300 Ah model. So can we believe anything else in your stated specs?
And in the ebay listing, isn't the claim its 12V/24V/48V just a misunderstanding of the manufacturer's assertion that you can series connect up to 4 of them?
Caveat emptor.
