Takeaways

If you want quiet HF operation, Bioenno still wins (personal test: zero shortwave noise).
For budget 100 Ah packs, LiTime or Power Queen deliver — Will Prowse torture-tested them hard.
For serviceability, SOK’s openable case is unique.
For panels, Renogy and Rich Solar 100 W rigid units are the safe go-to.
