I have had Lithium battery's in sport bikes and yes charging systems are a problem, I have distroyed 2 batterys before I figured out the problem but then sold the bike with the new bigger battery so not sure if it was the fix. After seing phone batterys blow up and the damage they do just think of a car battery blowing up. I know that if they go below 9 volts they turn to junk and if you over charge them they turn to junk. I think I will wait till the technology gets better before I put one in another vahicle.
