Also, it would be great if you couild start a thread when you do your lithium battery conversion. I am always on the lookout for great new ideas. Do check out the thread of my conversion at

There were definitely some surprises and it is not a drop in as some might believe.

The reality is I'm finding the Snoozy to be absolutely amazing but it may not be the fit I wanted and I sadly may end up selling it.
The rooftop
solar and heat aren't an issue but the panel frames need to be 3-4 inches off the roof. Some people use the flexible panels mounted right on the roof and I doubt they know the thermal gains they're dealing with.
Either way I'm doing a lifepo4 system, negotiating now for a group buy with some people in 48 of the 90 amp hour cells. I would end up using 16 of those with a high quality BMS and building my pack. I need to get about 4,000 watts out of it and need it for $275 or less per kwh.
Either way I will keep you all posted.
