you can go to max drain and recharge WITHOUT SHORTENING LIFE SPAN
so can get the same power use with 20% of the battery's

No. That was much older technology. With the regular AGM, you can get 1500 cycles with a 50% DOD. With the newer tech, you can get 3000 with 75% DOD. Cost is 10% more than regular AGM.
Li-Ion is nowhere near that in a $/kwh
I'm STILL looking for an affordable Lithium battery.
