 Unfortunately for vanfolk, early lithium had cell voltages that didn't line up well with 12v applications, and a disconcerting habit of entering thermal runaway (ie, violently catching on fire).
-Newer Li chemistries like LiFePO4 are much more stable and have cell voltages that work well with 12v power systems.  The downside is lower energy density than the flamethrowing versions.
+LiFePO4, the current lithium standard for vandwellers, is much more stable and have cell voltages that work well with 12v power systems.  The downside is lower energy density than the flamethrowing versions.
