Until lithium technology is adapted to work in all cars and overcome the voltage issues (Very few of the lithium batteries have sufficient protection circuits) that happens in off-normal conditions, I think we need to look at potentially banning them in Solo. I definitely think a minimum 10lb weight will not solve or band-aid the problem.
Anyone who questions how safe lithium car batteries may or may not be, please go look at some of the horror stories in the RC world where tiny 7.2v packs have started fires etc. in storage, not even in use.
I would be in favor of not allowing lithium batteries, unless manufactured with one.
