   Yeah, the trailer is set up for the LI, it took only the flip of a   
   dip switch on the controller board. I have the battery at home in   
   the garage, based mostly on advice I've read to disconnect for   
   storage and to top off the charge from time to time.   
      
   Interestingly, in the roughly four months it's been in the garage,   
   the SOC has held rock steady at 98%. I had expected it to drop a   
   fair bit over time, but it hasn't at all.
