Not at the current time. He figures each system would be very different and take a lot of design time (he loves design but it is not cost effective for singleton systems). AM-Solar does this but have noticed that their systems are fairly small. I read that AM-Solar was considering LFP and someone on either this forum and IRV2 wrote that they are now doing this.
We are heading up to his place at 7800' in northern NM (near Las Vegas, NM) in two weeks to drop off the rig for three months while we fly down to Ecuador and Peru. It gets down to -20 F. We left it there last year and the LFP did not seem to mind the cycles at low temperatures. The charging rates were probably around C/20. The primary problem with charging below freezing is high C which causes differential heating and consequent bulging of casing etc.
