Cranking Battery

Saw a promo for lithium batteries vs traditional lead/acid batteries. I'm sure they are very expensive. They had a single battery that produced 36 volts and you could pick it up easily with one hand. They require a special charger and claimed they would last ten years. I know it's probably way too expensive right now but it looks to me like they may be in our near future. Just like satellite tv, flat screens, and LED lighting, everything gets less expensive as it is improved and produced for the masses.

Besides vehicles, the price tag on those suckers keep climbing to ridiculous prices and the quality is going in the gutter.. and once the warranty runs out the repairs will put you in the poor house.

Ouch is right. I'd be willing to drop a grand on one if they are as good as they say, but that's about my max.
