I believe I would wait a little longer before trying this newish technology! These batteries can go up in flames when being charged (which means so could your garage or entire home). I am not convinced that the golf cart industry has mastered this technology.

I might add that I am a proponent of this technology and have been driving (and charging) a Chevy Volt for 5 years! That car works great BUT incorporates a lot of hitech safety measures into using the lithium battery. It monitors the health of individual cells, as well cools them as needed! In hot weather here in Florida, even though my battery is fully charged, I will hear the cooling system turn on automatically to keep my battery in tip-top condition!

Good luck.
