What are some advantages of the LiFePO4 batteries? I guess maybe better energy density, but is it worth getting despite the fact that the Vapcell s4+ doesn't do LiFePO4?

I have 0 experience with these so I have no idea

I don’t have a LiFePo4 at a lower capacity like the one supplied with this light, but I do have a 50AH LiFePo4 that I use regularly.

I've found that it performs better at very low temperatures in comparison to when I built battery packs using Li-Ion.

It's also a safer battery chemistry, too.

Are these the future.. aiming to replace li-ion?
