The only reason I mention the cold thing is when I search for an Li battery for my bike I find one on ebay with a warning on the advert that they won't work at lower temperatures. At this point it's not a huge problem. My issue really is that I'm now in Thailand for maybe a year and I'm using the bike infrequently and the batteries are just not lasting. I had an issue a few months ago where she just wouldn't start as the only run she was getting was a mile a day through Bangkok traffic. When she cooled down she fired up fine but two days later I had to fly and I was gone 3 weeks. I came back to a dead bike... obviously really. I just don't want it to happen again, not least because getting parts here is a pain in the arse.
I've never heard of "Lithium iron".
