Steve,
Gary doesn't full time. Therefore heating the batteries during storage may be a serious negative.
not at all, during storage just disconect them. Li are very light compared to the othes so no issues in moving them. I store in my driveway pluged in, I would probably have the same issue with Li but with a discharge rate of around 1%/month I would just unhook them for the winter.

So you expect me to move 9 batteries in and out of my home every time I wish to go on a winter trip???
nope if you read my post I said I would just disnect them and leave them sitting outside in the 5th wheel. adding a new battory disconect switch that totaly disconects them would do the trick. if your at 90% youll be fine for the winter, but I would charge it up monthly and then discharge it back to 90%. most people that I have talked to just leave them pluged in all winter, but who knows if that is good or not.
