This is an item that will be placed somewhere out of the way and rarely touched for many including myself, so I want to know it is ultra stable. Lithium batteries when they fail, while it rarely happens, do so catastrophically. LiFePo4 batteries don't.
This model, if discharged one time per week, would last you 15 years before it would degrade to an 80% max charge (800 cycles / 52 weeks per year = 15+ years).

It gets brought up every time without discussion the benefits and downsides of each chemistry. While its great for consistent, heavy use, I dont recommend it for most peoples portable backup solutions.
In addition to your very valid point, this chemistry is also far less energy dense than standard lithium, making the battery heavier and larger in comparison.
Both have their merits, and need to be decided individually. I went with a standard lithium EF Delta MAX.

Thank you both for your insights re: cycles, chemistry, etc. I don't think I'll be buying one of these for a while. No need, have a small Honda generator, stable power, etc. But some day will set up a 10-20kW solar array, and will almost certainly look in to battery storage. So thanks for sharing your info. So much good stuff to learn!

LiFePO4 handles heat much better. (throw in your car or garage worry free)
LiFePO4 has MUCH better life cycle
LiFePO4 does not have Cobalt
LiFePO4 is not as energy dense.
The way I see it, the safety alone makes LiFePO4 worth the tradeoff over energy density.

The only case I can see LiFePo4 is at disadvantage is when you need mobility, like when you go on camping trips and do other outdoor activities, recharge your e-bike, drone, pump your sup board...etc.
... but... I also have this Ecoflow Delta and it's awesome, esp at this price which is $200 less than what I paid for mine. I've used it on many random trips and it charges plenty fast on a wall charger or the inverter I hooked up to my car.
I've yet to see mass explosions and degradation of batteries but I would've happily paid this price!
