Lithium Battery Charging System
It is time for a new battery in my '04 Lance 921. I am looking at an Interstate battery they sell up the road. But through my research into charging systems/problems, I got to thinking about Lithium...

I boondocked with wet batteries and now with a Lithium battery. With an adequate solar system recharging either type of battery is not an issue. Sure, my Lithium has more usable power and it recharges faster but those are the only differences I've noticed.
didn't notice the weight and size savings?
Right? He'll also notice a difference over time when money isn't leaving his pocket after just 400-500 lead acid cycles vs multiple thousands of cycles with LFP.
And the person "worried" about whether lithium batteries are safe... That's just silly. Lifepo4 chemistry is super safe and stable. The BMS takes all the worry out of it. You literally need to do nothing except keep it at 20-80% SOC for maximum life. You can even discharge to 0% if need be, so long as its not too quick. Get it charged back up at to at least 20% and you're good.
