I am considering Li batteries for my RV. The prices have come way down and the advantages sound incredible (from all the marketing BS) But before I make that financial jump I want to find out what others are experiencing. Googling for them turn up nothing relevant. Thanks, Bill
PS. I only have room for 4 batteries and we currently use about 200 AH per 24 hour period when boondocking. My 520 AH of LA batteries are struggling to keep up with that and the relatively quick recharge to 80% then the inevitable slowdown to a charging crawl doesn't work so well when you want to charge them only with solar. Stick in a cloudy day or two and the genny is shaking the coach for a lot of hours. The hype about Li is you can stay in "bulk" charge to 98% which would help with the short solar charging hours outside of summer. (we are @ Meziadin Lake BC) .
