The only concern I can see is the heart attack you'll suffer when you see the price.

 Is there any concern with older
 alternator/regulator charging?   I though LI
 products needed a "smart" charger.

 Half the weight and 5
 times the cost:

 Also twice the reserve AH
 reserve capacity too and with my 2500CFM fans
 pulling 20A in bumper to bumper idling
 traffic... that could be handy as the
 Raleigh/Durham area becomes Atlanta.
 
 I've been wondering how
 these fare long term.  They are supposed to last
 twice as long or more than an AGM battery
 too.  Could be easily relocated to
 the rear
 of the car but it's not hard to build a bucket in the
 trunk for it.
 I'm not sure of the
 chemistry though.  If it is not LiFeP04 the failure mode
 is... very intense.  I was thinking of
 Hammond's crash and while Pb
 batteries
 also explode, the energy cooped up in a higher rated
 Lithium
 battery is stunning when
 released.
