That may be worth looking at. A new battery pack for a Prius is about $4K
and they come with a 10 year-100,000 mile replacement warranty. The thing is,
the engine is continually charging the pack so it doesn't get deep discharges
like a traction battery system would.
I heard the new A123 battery company production facility in Michigan will
be making Li-ion batteries available soon for the general public. That should be
interesting.
