Maximum Car Voltage

5x2.3v is 11.5v.. I just heard that to get all of them you need over 14.4v and that 14.4v is minimum to charge them.

I’ve heard that lto cells are better for higher voltage like you said so another option is cells that charge to say 14.6 in the case of headway cells if I recall correctly. 

Personally I was thinking of lithium but changed my mind for a safer option. Agm’s and depending on my voltage drop maybe some super caps from xs. I already have two agms and a charger so it is a better deal for me

Most automotive modules are designed to run at 16V max but I wouldn't push close to that if you could avoid it.
