lithium question
Can you charge lithium batteries with a regular charger or do I need to buy a special charger?

All manufactured EVs use some other lithium chemistry, typically lithium cobalt. LFP (short for Lithium Ferris Phosphate) are less energy dense, but much more fire resistant. I'm just pointing this out because many people will say the lithium batteries are unsafe and burn, just look at the Tesla and Boeing fires, without understanding the difference.
If you google ice fires--there were 150,000 in USA last year. The fire problem is over blown, and in my opinion, a negative advertising campaign.
The Bolt batteries were defective from the factory that made them. They are replacing them all.
