    Yeah, I was shopping for lithium on phosphatase leisure batteries maybe two years ago and was looking at spending over £1000 per battery. Now those batteries are not much over £100 and prices still seem to be falling.

        LiFePo (Lithium Iron Phosphate) is heavier than traditional Lithium Ion batteries for the same amount of energy storage, but doesn’t degrade when discharged to zero the way traditional Lithium Ion does.

        That looks like autocorrect or text-to-speech mangled ‘lithium iron phosphate’

        Well, you know…sometimes you just need a vibrator that can go a continuous month between recharges…
