- yencabulator 4y agoYes, LiFePO charges much faster and in solar setups can "use more of the input" when it does shine. Lead-acid can compete there mostly by building a much bigger battery pack. I'd personally not want a lead-acid battery burping flammable gas inside an apartment. They're supposed to be installed in ventilated spaces with drainage holes for any acid that spills out.
