FWIW, I use LFP batteries for my motorcycles and hobbyist needs. Their durability is spectacular, and it is very convenient that they can match the charging voltages for 12V automotive lead-acid systems without any kind of expensive interface.
Of course, this is completely different than using them for large-scale battery packs. Just pointing out that they are already in use in specialty niches today.
- elihu 5y agoI'm using LFP cells in an EV conversion I'm working on. I could have gotten better range by using used Tesla modules, but then I would have had to deal with liquid cooling, and the modules were an awkward size that didn't really fit conveniently where I wanted to put them. Plus LFP cells are a lot harder to accidentally catch on fire.
