Has anyone used Winston Lithium batteries in A van? Are they any good? Why wouldn't they be suitable for solar setups?
I came across them here while looking for used hybrid car batteries.
They come in a great range of Ah sizes, are LiFePO4 type cells (Lithium Iron Phosphate) and are really quite small and light. Most of all the are only 15% of the cost of premium lithium batteries. I must be missing something?

Prices in AUD:
3.2V
1000Ah = $1800
700Ah = $1260
400Ah = $720
300Ah = $540
200Ah = $360
160Ah = $288
90Ah = $162
60Ah = $108
40Ah = $72
12V
90Ah = $672
60Ah = $448
40Ah = $448
In the 3.2V range, I was wondering if connecting 4 together to make 12V would work? Do I need a special solar charge controller?
I wanted to share and hear the pro's and con's from those who know more about this than I do, or if you've installed them, how well have they worked for you?
