Phil,
Their cycle rating is far less than Hups or Rolls when you compare specs. I
understand their self discharge rate is atrocious requiring a substantial
portion of the charging source(s) to be allocated just for this.
I have heard the sales pitch that they last forever, but if you live off grid
you are using the batteries in a cycling application and INMHO the flooded lead
acid batteries are much better suited for this.

Greetings,
Does anyone have experience with Iron Edison Batteries for an off grid
application?
They claim "excellent and reliable performance for 20+ years"
Thank you,
