As the article mentions, one spends a lot of money on lithium & you do not want to waste your money or have an even more expensive problem.
I could not have chosen a better heading to your blog.
I recently upgraded my Solar System to Lithium Batteries and Solar Charging.
I researched far and wide before undertaking the upgrade including seeking advice here.
I have consolidated my research of data and opinions into one document which I have attached for others contemplating installing a LiFePO4 solar system.
My solar system comprises of 800Watts fixed solar panels and one portable panel: a total of 1000Watts.
The Solar Charger is a MPPT Epever 80Amp charger.
The Lithium-Ion 2x135AH LiFePO4 batteries, in parallel, provides a 270AH battery bank.
I hope this helps somebody contemplating a LiFePO4 solar charge system.
I have included my detailed solar charger Lithium battery settings also.
Opinions and advice are most welcome.

I have downloaded it, and will have a good read of yours, and Whenarewethere websites, when I am closer to purchasing lithium batteries
