   Any suggestions for vendors of packaged LiPO4 batteries?   
   There are lots of brand names for 12 volt 100 amp hour   
   units, but very little guidance on relative value and   
   reliability. This particular application is for a trolling   
   motor, I'm looking mostly for guidance on reputable sellers.   
      
   Thanks for reading

   Sorry, not from me. I tested Lithiums in industry but didn't select or   
   purchase them. At home I have almost entirely second-hand or NOS laptop and   
   cell charger Lithiums, since new ones cost so much and I've paid good money   
   for low-capacity fakes. The proper person to ask would handle warranty   
   returns, perhaps at a store.

   The numerous in-house machines at Segway used older degraded (free)   
   batteries so I know they do lose capacity, but we didn't keep records on   
   them. In my experience Lithiums' loss of capacity is somewhat random, which   
   on-line reviews may reflect.
