LTO cells have a less flat curve, since they behave like LFP or NMC but -1 volt. By the time my 5S pack is done, it has dropped from 14V to barely over 10V. Their internal resistance increases by less in freezing temps as well. They also can be discharged to 0V with no damage.

I was worried mainly because the BMS is "200A" rated, whereas the starter probably uses more like 400A. If you just directly connect 30A LFMP or LTO cells to a car, they'll crank whatever engine you throw at them, probably even a Dodge Viper or Bugatti Veyron.
