I would recommend a 48V pack over individual 12v batteries in series.

If you buy thru Amazon, you can get a 3 year Amazon warranty for about 100 bucks.

48V/100ah LFP batteries are about 1000 bucks now...Cheaper on Prime Days.

All batteries have a built-in BMS. You will need a 48V LFP charger. Some 48v batteries at Amazon come with charger included.

You will also need a different fuel gauge since LFP voltage is different than lead-acid.

I don't recommend any batteries and I don't recommend anyone without a background in STEM do this but CHINS might be good. It states 500A peak output current.

Assumption here but since this technology is new I doubt anyone will have any warranty experience since the lithium is supposed to last ~10 years (I am looking into it also and have been doing some reading on the same)?
