Rugged windows 11 tablet 14hr+ battery under 500 bucks for using with Ignition

Any recommendations?

I keep seeing some with only 10 hours battery life, or the price jumps up.  
I was unable to find a good spreadsheet online comparing these like I had for the mini PCs.

I think those requirements are going to exclude every rugged model. We have some Windows 11 rugged tablets with detachable keyboards that are even Class 1 Div 2 certified. But pricing is round $4k each.

Rugged OR Cheap.  
That's the choice you will have to make.

We use GETAC tablets for Vision clients on the production floor.  
Not cheap, but VERY rugged.
