[QUOTE="L1ttlet, post: 8658026, member: 675617"] Congrats on the diy lithium build. I was looking at doing this myself. Upon my many hours and countless days of research I found that you need the lithium iron phosphate cells as the lithium have to many variables if something was to go wrong. Also checked into many brands such as limitless and jy lithiums, neither of them run BMS (battery management systems) which is why vehicles are catching on fire as the cells become unstable at certain temps or charge irregular and cause short and then fire. Also loomed at xs power lithium and many others. The DS18 lithium seem the most transparent as they have wingnut tops on their case and u can check quality your self. I Called GP audio and was just asking and asked why they haven't any lithiums yet, this striked an hr long convo of the research they have put into and money as well and why they won't have any lithiums. Basically was told that lithiums are still to unstable even though the cells have that lil valve that will pop if something goes wrong and the BMS systems. If a cell pops being that close to the others it will cause an explosion. Also the bms systems detect alot of things like equal charging and safety shut offs. But the bms for car audio would cost to much to be practical and affordable. I was told that there is a new tech.
