Lithium batteries for cars have to use a very different chemistry because they have to produce incredibly high power outputs (like 400+ HP in a Tesla) which an RV doesn’t ever need. A 30-Amp service is only 3,600 Watts, or about 5 HP. Even with surge current to start an air conditioner, it’s still relatively low power compared to automobiles. Chance of fire is very low. I’m not aware of any — although it doesn’t mean it can’t happen. Regardless, LiFePO4 is not comparable to Tesla type of battery.

The Life batteries are popular among RC'ers. It's a matter of time. Who would assume a RV doesn't require that much horsepower? I'd like to have few extra ponies under my foot, but that's just me. Some of those 'hills' can get steep.
Let me know if they're looking for a test pilot.
