Well, after I do what ever I have to do inside the motorhome would be preferable ;) :lol:

One thing to be careful of with all lithium batteries ... well all batteries really .... travelling in the red dust in WA. This is iron ore dust and if it gets wet it will form an iron ore link and rust. That will make a reasonable connection between the terminals and short the battery out, generally killing it stone dead.
A real risk for those that have their batteries hanging off the chassis and open to the elements where both dust and water can get on the battery/cell tops.
A while back, DaPope had this happen with a 200Ah lithium cell, it melted the cap on top of the cell that holds down the pressure release valve and it looks like the electrolyte vapour vented through the melted plug and now it looks like a very nasty wart :o Didn't do the cell much good either, so be aware of the issue ....
