If anybody is interested, check out this site. Two of the 100 amp hour batteries in parallel to give 200 amp hour capacity. That would give the same useful energy as 4, 6 volt Trojan T105's
$2,000 compared to about $700 (that's 3x the price)
Trojans are 10.5" x 7" x 11" high 62 and lbs each. Thats 248 lbs total
Total volume needed just under 2 cubic ft
Lithiums are 12.;5" x 8.5" x 7"and 30 lbs each thats 60 lbs total
Total volume needed is 0.8 cubic ft

Doesn't the Chevy Volt have a special A/C unit just for the L/I batteries to keep them from overheating and catching fire?
Odyssey PC-1800:
1800 cranking amps vs 200 max discharge rate.
$575 vs $1000.
190 AH for 20 hours vs 100 AH for ???????? hours.
PC-1800 does weight 132 lbs vs 30 lb
I'll stay low tech.
