Issues you should consider include whether your alternator can charge lithium batteries at correct/preferred/ideal voltage, whether your RV’s converter has a lithium charge profile option, or a custom one you can program, and if camping in very cold weather, if the battery will operate properly when installed outside as most RV batteries are. Lithium iron phosphate batteries (if that’s what you’re considering) that I’ve seen on new motorhomes are usually installed inside the heated and cooled space. Just a few things to consider, although there are probably others — my 2 cents.
