My AGM to Lithium conversion

Should be required to have a sign on the side of the RV warning about Lithium batteries on board. Life has it's benefits and everything has a trade off. To me sometimes the trade off is too costly. Not talking about the initial cost, I'm talking about the danger involved with use and the eventual problems with recycling. I believe in keeping it simple, have a little more physical labor in life it's better for you.

this is a case of taking facts from older Li technology and trying to say its true to LiFeP04. this in fact is not true at all. here is a quote.

"With electrodes made of non-toxic materials, LiFePO4 batteries pose far less risk to the environment than lead-acid batteries. They can also be recycled to recover the materials used in their electrodes, wiring, and casings to be used in new lithium batteries."
