Apparently there was concern that if lithium batteries were installed inside motorhome, someone would later replace them with lead batteries which could produce hydrogen gas.
Anyway, a new standard has been adopted that allows batteries to be installed inside without venting to outside.
It will be interesting to see if that helps accelerate shift to lithium batteries, or is higher initial cost still the main disadvantage?

At a $1000 a piece the cost would be the deal breaker for me!!!
The price of 2 lithium 12 volt batteries would keep me in FLA batteries for the next 40-50 years.
