Diy cost benefits are not worth the hassle or time for smaller capacity.
Lead acid can only use about half of its rated capacity and at 63lb its heavy and charge much slower than lithium. And 1200wh sla can only output enough current for 600w. It's not even comparable
Getting closer to 500 hold the line

Recently these have been hitting more and more interesting prices for me. I'm trying to decide on going the full DIY route or with one of these systems. If anyone here has comments for that, I'm all ears!

You can get much, much cheaper cost per kWh by using SLA or AGM batteries, depending upon how frequently you intend to use your battery. For instance, you could get one 1,200 Wh SLA battery for $169[mightymaxbattery.com] and depending on the quality you would like, you could spend under $200 for the inverter. And you can tack on as many batteries as you like for whatever capacity you need.
If I buy both batteries how long would it run a 1500 watt portable ac unit
The battery capacity is around 1800wh for two batteries. A little over an hour unless you have a solar panel. Says the max solar panel is 500w. This isn't really the right system to be running 1500w on

There are Youtube videos showing that if you buy the newer technology inverter window AC units, they have steady state of about 400-500W after the intial startup surge.
