Lithium Ion Batteries

Is anyone out there currently using Lithium Ion batteries in their RV? If you are, can you share your experience with them?

We have met Ron Jones many times and he is a great guy. He has been running and testing Lithium Ion batteries for about three years now in his Dynasty. He will be glad to answer any questions you have. I have included a link to his web site below. His email and phone number is given on the website.

Just read Ron's article. Lengthy but informative. My take away is that lithium ion batteries would be a better choice than lead acid but it is extremely important to have your charging system tested for proper operation. Many thanks for the recommendation.
