Lithium batteries are expensive but comparatively light and compact for the power they can store. This has value in a jet or an electric care but zero value in an RV.
I beg to disagree. I have two AGMs in my RV and would love to have the additional capacity of Lithium Ion batteries. It's not just a matter of weight (which does matter in smaller RVs like mine) but a matter of volume. I can fit two batteries in my compartment....that's it. My two AGMs cost me $600. I'd gladly pay 2 grand for lithiums that fit in the same place (giving me much more capacity).
BTW, I am one of those Boeing engineering types that was knee deep in the battery thing. I work at Flight Test.
