Have watched this fellow for about two months now, here are a few of his videos you may find useful.  One of my favorites to date, explaining rating standards for batteries and the other video showing how to build your own lifepo4 12 volt battery.

Good ifo, first video really applies to FT owners looking for an upgrade. Lot of bad advice on lithiums on this and other forums. He is a young fellow but pretty well informed and appears to do his homework.
