Should I get an EZ pass for my upcoming northeast trip?

I looked at my route and think I might as well get one. The price of the transponder is actually prepaid toll money, so no loss, I'm going to use it all on my trip.

but you're required to keep that balance in the account so there is cost/loss if you don't use it again/often.

Not true for VA EzPass.

Auto refill of the EZ pass also is not required. We do pay attention to the emailed "low balance" alerts.

it sure is true practically if it drops below minimum before the trip is over

Above is definitely not our experience with a VA EZ-Pass. And we do not have auto-pay turned on.

In NY I can't remember all the options. But I have it linked to my checking account. Doesn't require maintaining a balance. A day or two after going through tolls they deduct.
