I have used LTC1487 ultra-low power RS485 in a battery powered remote data acquisition system.
Yes, I went and looked up the LTC1487 and they claim you can put 256 of them on a single bus. But it does cost about the same as a MAX485, and this project involves 200 of them. It seems to come down to simplicity versus the budget!
