Will Prowse vdo, drop-in load test, Ruixu vs Battle Born

Personally, I don't buy into the drop-in concept, but many do.

Will Prowse is also not my type, but he sure has learned a lot in the last year or so, so I won't nit pick minor mistakes (Vmax quality AGM for deep cycling?)

See #6473, CF user ruixulifepo4 is probably run by "Rachel", also manages their Amazon shop. They also sell on Ali, and may be a good source for Sinopoly prismatics as bare cells (a better approach than drop-ins IMO)

Note none of this implies my endorsement of anything here, just posted for FYI and discussion / feedback on these two makers.

Edit: Ruixi drop-ins also currently sold on eBay, user "bulbman702"

I’ve been watching his videos to attempt to understand all of the off grid solar/lithium. Very relatable guy

I agree his latest videos have been a lot better than what they used to be. I quite enjoy his new run of "open up this new AliExpress battery bank" and "test this BMS". His old videos were making me cringe a lot, but somehow I was still watching them. Too many mistakes and incorrect information. His recent videos on the other hand are quite informative.
