The problem is I have limited battery tray space and need higher amp hours in the same tray than lead acid can provide.

The problem is that your panel has more toys than an adult novelty shop ;-).. Just use the correct charger/balancer and you will be fine. Another thing for safety and longevity is the cut off circuitry. These have been used in gliders for some time with good results. Look at the Antares (Slight variation in chemistry). Also, Doesn't the JS1 come with LiFePo4 from the factory.
