Thread: Lithium vs regular deep cycle batteries?

I think most if not all these drop in lithium batteries are now lithium iron phosphate .... If it's not, don't use it. Those early lithium ion batteries gave lithium a bad name when they burned up boats. Those cell phone batteries that catch on fire are lithium ion.

With the lithium iron phosphate chemistry it is virtually impossible to have a thermal runaway situation.

One of the problems is that some of the people selling them use the terminology interchangeably. They will call it a lithium ion .... when it actually is a lithium iron phosphate.

They're 29lbs a piece and lithium iron phosphate. I'm going with him tomorrow maybe he'll have them installed so I can check them out

I have located a 24 volt battery from amped up and they are 46 pounds and 80 ah it is 20 3/4 inches long and 8.1 wide and 9.7 tall. Seems long what do yall think?

Greenwing we hope to hear your report.

Doesn't seem too long for a 24V battery .... got a link to it?
