Didn't the article say that these were produced by A123? "The biggest player
in the LiFePO4 marketplace for electric vehicles, however, is A123
Systems.."

I've run both LiFe and A123's thru a West Systems Battery Analyzer. . . The
LiFe's have higher internal resistance.

Isn't this the same technology as A123 cells?  Much better reliability and
more cycles but at a weight penalty.  A pack to equal our 10S motor packs
would weigh about 1 pound more.

I found this article today and thought you guys might be interested. I
personally like the part that says "These batteries will typically perform
well in temperatures up to 400-Degrees F."
