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...

Any battery abused will start a fire. Lithium Iron Phosphate is not the panacea.
Has everyone seen the 9v smoke detector battery and steel wool videos?
I meant that LiFe are saf-er. More stable material, harder to ignite when abused.
Mex - I don't understand about sellers asking phone and email. When you are checking out, you always provide name, shipping address, billing address. Occasionally - phone and email too. But ineptness and general "don't care" attitude of UPS delivery drivers negates the best efforts of a storefront web designer.
If they ask your phone and email BEFORE giving the price and shipping quote, - I don't contact those too. They sell wholesale, not retail. Or they haven't sold anything yet, a newly formed e-commerce hub trying to get in business, they will contact the distributor for prices, call around for a shipper etc. Not ready.
