New LG lithium batteries $600 per KWH
LG has a new line of lithium batteries out, and the rumor is they are 600$ per KWH. I am surprised no one on here has mentioned the newer LG Chem RESU lithium ion batteries. They have managed to pac...

What data do you have to share to back up that claim about interconnected being unreliable?
Keeping inter-connections to a minimum comes from systems analysis and design principles, consideration of statistical probabilities for failure in complex systems, and just plain common sense on keeping the number of points at a minimum that can mechanically fail.
However from most (but not all) comments in this thread supposedly from folks who know, lithium cells can indeed be scaled up so that just a few high amp-hour cells can be put in series to produce high amp-hour batteries at whatever voltage is needed - hence allowing far less inter-connections than a bunch of small amp-hour cells in parallel and then put in series would require.
I hope that's the case ... for us future RV lithium users once prices come down. I like things inherently reliable, as minimizing RV maintenance certainly requires this, among other things.
