Normally I use the amp20 pack by its self but some times I do add a cylindrical pack in the suburban.
There is no corrosion but 2 tabs arced together and burned up a little when some crack head tried to steal it. Still works. Now I use the anderson connectors constantly, I never leave my LiFePO4 packs in a vehicle any more.
The amp20 pack cost me about $250 or $350 in cells, another $30 or $40 in hardware, $20 for the partial aircraft battery box. $20 for one side of an anderson connector. Then all day to put it together. I value it more than the life of a random crack head.
