The silicate batteries come up often like clockwork here actually.
Basically an agm format with different electrolyte structure that allows you to discharge them down to very low volts without as much damage as you'd do to a normal agm. Not that any of your systems will actually operate at super low voltages. The LVD in your converter will kick off first. Your 12v equipment will shut off well before you take these to zero.
However, the different electrolyte is supposed to be more resistant to sulfation. Which is actually a good thing, since agm's are notoriously hard to properly maintain to get that last 1% of charge in, which walks down capacity. It may not be so bad, so interesting.
Still, one is dealing with lead-acid. The usual marketing tries to sell the consumer in a comparision to flooded lead acid, with "no pesky gas!", anti-corrosive, and all the usual stuff that they used to pump up for normal agm's. Kind of off-putting for those who actually know.
But hey, if it floats your boat, get some!
