Anyone using Lithium batteries? Comments?

Phil,
The charge rate hardly is an issue. Yes a single Li will recharge faster. But very few of us have only 100 amp-hours.
How many inverter/chargers can do more than 127 amps of charging? I don't know of any at all.
My plans are for 400 to 600 amp-hours of SiO2. 400 may draw 100 amps of charging, and 600 would be 150 amps. So a 400 amp-hour li bank would only charge about 20% faster than SiO2.
