Luminous 12150H Solar Battery Multicolour
Amazon's catalog no longer lists this product (checked 2026-11-02). The name comes from the link HN users posted.

uh, this one says Long cycles (1500 @80% DOD, 5000 @ 20% DOD); AH efficiency > 90%; WH efficiency > 80%
sure 1500 is not 5000 but its also not 500. second, it says 60 months warranty which they mean "replacement" so if i exhaust the 1500 in 5 years,they would replace it at no extra charge, suppose it happens after 4 years. the new batteries would give me another 4 ~ years so in total i would get around 5+4~5 years life out of paying just once. i'm not saying LFP is bad, just expensive.
i can't seem to reply to your last comment so i am writing it here.
these are amazon prices on https://www.amazon.in/Luminous-12150H-Solar-Battery-Multicol...
i can get 200ah for this price for same 5 years warranty included and no shipping. its sold at the shop on the other block so shipping and warranty is included.
oh, btw you cant really buy stuff from china to india. the borders are either closed or you have to pay 40% customs so that is out of question. the reason why i think LFP at 275 is expensive , again because the replacement before 5 years gives me another 5 years without paying again so essentially i would be getting for $1500, 12 * 200 * 16 and sure its bulky AF but i do not have to drive more than a mile for getting it to home so yeah
