I'm interested to hear as well. Shorai uses prismatic LiFePO4 pouches where as Antigravity uses A123 cylindrical LiFePO4 cells so their composition is different. However, neither use a built in battery management system to prevent overcharging/undercharging so both would be subjected to the same operating conditions. I'm pretty disappointed as I was excited to implement this newer battery technology into this platform but it doesn't appear it's a viable option as a drop in replacement.
