Just curious - why Lithiums are so heavy?
100 AH, flooded, 66-69 lbs. 100 AH, Li, 29-31 lbs. Brain-dead sellers jumping on a new bandwagon, "One-fifth the weight of a traditional battery", yahooo.... More usable capacity, yes, but not...

For those where weight is not an issue, and willing to do some soldering with BMS, these LiCo Shevy boxes could work. I understand the main advantage of LiFe over LiCo is that LiFe don't start fires, and lose less capacity annually than LiCo. Expect 4% capacity loss at room temps with LiCo, more if it's hotter.
OTH, LiCo is lighter (higher energy density), not the case with this Shevy LiCo, it must have Shevy truck metal on it :)
