Lithium Battery Question
I am thinking about converting my 2020 lance to Lithium batteries. I want to do it as inexpensively as possible. (Battle Born ain't gonna happen) Can anyone tell me what specifications I should look f...

Is there any surface charge on Li after being charged that you have to knock down to get a proper voltage reading? If so, is it any harder/easier to get rid of than with Wets?
If you get to full at 14.x, stop the charge, and let the Li sit no load, what voltage does it drop to right away and how long before it gets to 13.2?
I don't have the exact answer you're after from my experience with them, this is the closest I've come to resting voltage or being able to get any readings when not in fulltime use when living off grid.
This is from last night coming out of float after the controller went into sleep mode.
Float voltage 13.60v, I missed exactly when it switched over was out walking the dogs but you get the idea.
20:45 99% SOC 13.45v -2.4a load
21:10 99% 13.41V -2.4a
21:40 99% 13.38v -2.4a
22:00 98% 13.36v -2.4a
05:45 93% 13.34v -2.4a
06:30 92% 13.34v -2.4a
Last night the low was only 43f instead of 36/37f previous nights so the furnace didn't run as much and morning SOC a couple % higher.
