I'm not a lithium expert, but this sounds like it should work well as long as your cells remain balanced. If some are different temperatures, differing efficiency could get them out of balance. I would think you'd also need some kind of over-discharge protection. I wonder if that could be something as simple as a Lee Hart "batt-bridge" imbalance alarm. http://www.evdl.org/pages/battbridge.html Do lithium cells have enough voltage falloff when flat to make it work as needed here? Sorry about the bike/truck confusion.
