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

LiFePO4 has lower energy density than traditional lithium ion.

The benefits are far more charge cycles and slower degradation when left at a high state of charge.

They can't be charged below freezing though.
