Edit: it has multiple start batteries, multiple house batteries etc. just to show how to do that. You can simple eliminate what you don’t need while making sure you can extend later.

Thanks, Ill give it a look

When my AGM gels started to die I changed to Lipo4 cells. Built my own 13 volt pack from CALB cells. Could not be happier. Virtually no maintenance.
Will require a good adjustable battery charger that can have but does not need a high charge rate.
I charge with 500 watts solar and Honda 2200i.

Thats awesome. Im researching building my own batteries as well. Huge cost savings over off the shelf LifePO4. CALB is a top brand, from what Ive found.
