Efficiency , durability and Cost are some of the factors one needs to consider when chosing batteries for your inverter system.
Lead acid batteries are the cheapest and well within the reach of most people compared to lithium ion batteries whose cost is more than double.
Most manufacturers will give warranty of 1-2 yrs for lead acid battery compared to 2-5yrs lithium battery.
A lithium ion battery DOD (depth of discharge) is between 80-99%. Meaning, it can discharge all of its energy when in use compared to lead acid battery whose DoD is usually around 50%.
A 250ah lead acid battery can only give out about 125ah compared to lithium batteries of that same capacity that can discharge from 200-248ah.
Efficient battery management. In terms of the aforementioned, lithium ion technology does a good job managing a large bank of battery compared to lead acid.
I'm summary, cost seems to be the only advantage lead acid battery ( gel, flooded etc) seems to have over lithium ion bat

Do you know there are four types of photovoltaic (PV) cells or solar panels
They are
monocrystalline,
polycrystalline,
mono-PERC
thin-film
