Hi,
Some exceptions to LI being the right choice. One is cold weather use. The other is Li are NOT forgiving in any sense of the word. I'd hate to ruin 200 amp-hours of LI (I think 300 would be safer). The other is connecting Li in parallel.
The Li absolutely need a battery management system. One that monitors the charge on each and every cell would be my choice.
There is one Li chemistry that can be used and charged in extreme cold, but I've not been able to find it in a high amp-hour configuration.

I have seen the cost calculated between lithium vs AGM, lead acid and in the long run, the lithium costs less. It's that big up front cost you have to get passed.
