LiFePO4 battery
Jacek,
I'm using a stack of 2x4 A123 cells. It has 4,6 Ah and weighs only 700g. Its volume is a bit smaller than the standard 7 Ah lead battery. By buying single cells, you can build your battery in the shape you need it and fit it to any unused space in your ship. Erik.

I read about them a bit, but ..... So, here are my questions: is it worth buying this type of battery (they are quite pricey), is the size comparable to sealed acid batteries (capacity to size), any issues related to charging. Your input would be greatly appreciated. Jacek Pasco, WA
