As I know absolutely nothing about batteries and electrics, I’d like some advice from the experts on here, here is my starter quote. All advice is much appreciated.

On what basis, they are just another Chinese manufacturer.

Twice the price of Fogstar only a 2 year warranty compared to Fogstar's 10 years.
No built in heater like Fogstar
They don't even state what type or make of cells they use at least with Fogstar you know what you are getting & you have good UK backup.

Well you can keep that one. As Lenny HB says. The batteries are chinese, I would guess the circuit board was chinese. I would further guess it wasn't even assembled in the UK.
Twice the price. No heater?

Cheers Lenny, I was just getting content with a TN battery and you’ve blown it out of the water 🤣🤣🤣

I have used Rhino installs several times over the last 7 years. Also used Vanbitz for a Growler. Both companies were excellent and would recommend either company. Had a problem with an Inverter fitted at Rhino installs and was swapped out under warranty without any problems (actually for a higher capacity). You might pay a bit more at these two companies, but you know if there are any problems in the future they will still be there to help resolve any issues. Sometimes trying to save a bit of money up front will cost you more in the long run.
