When Boeing has misfires it raises my eyebrows. That is one sharp group of engineers. They had fires with LiPo. THE MILITARY REFUSES TO USE THEM in large capacity devices. I love the promise of LiPO but I am very leery of the drawbacks. Like a new medicine, new designs might encourage the development of a couple extra eyeballs when preliminary studies had shown the product to be a miracle. Electric car manufacturers spent millions developing monitoring and safety control systems for their vehicles.
The real test of a product is to turn it loose on the public, wait a couple of years then a conclusion can be reached. I simply do not trust vendors and customers opinions of a new technology product. Some of you may be too young to remember the introduction of the J.C Penney Forever battery. Or the totally miserable performance and lifespan of sealed Calcium/calcium "deep cycle" batteries.
My limited knowledge of lithium includes memories of hot as hell computer batteries and cell phone batteries that were also hot as hell in my pocket after making a long call. Education would be in order but the cost of samples to play with are far beyond my resources ability. unless they find a way to make an excellent product that can reasonably compete with AGM amp hour cost wise my interest remains subdued.
