Does anyone have an opinion on using lithium batteries for the house bank on a Harryproa? I would like to have a 250Ah house bank (2x4D) and that weighs a ton (well, 250lbs or so). Since I should not discharge below 50%, I only really get 125Ah from it. With lithium-ion, I think I can discharge all the way, so I just need to buy 150Ah of lithium-ion, which weighs somewhere around 30lbs.

So, other than the cost, what are the downsides? Am I in danger of them catching fire? Anyone have any experience with these?
