Hi Pete,
Thanks for the link. Looks promising! I think you are right that there will be large improvements in batteries in the next few years. Probably making the current versions as desirable as Ni-Cad batteries when lithium first hit the market.
A lot more needed to control lithium batteries versus lead-acid, true. I think I finally have a setup that keeps my very large bank balanced. The 48v bank is doing great and staying very well balanced with no intervention from me. Hopefully my scaled-down version for the 24v bank will work as well. And it keeps the footprint of the whole thing smaller. I can always go to larger heatsinks or higher speed fans if necessary, but I think these will work ok. We'll soon know.
