What I'm currently thinking is that I have four LiFePo4 A123 amp20 (20Ah) pouch cells. I've always wanted to use them on a car because they are ridiculously light weight. I'm thinking of using those up front and fitting another lead battery somewhere else. I just have no idea where yet. I'll have to come up with some way of monitoring both batteries. Still not set on the idea, but its a possibility.
